The murder of the 36-year-old former Malmöbon has attracted considerable attention as he was shot with multiple shots in front of his wife and children outside their London home.

A 22-year-old man from Malmö was arrested at Kastrup in Denmark on Monday for suspicion of the murder.

SVT News has been in contact with a person sitting on the aircraft, but who wants to be anonymous. The witness tells how the pilot after landing told the passengers that they had special circumstances on board and that everyone had to stay in their seats.

Suddenly 4-5 policemen came aboard and arrested the 22-year-old.

"In retrospect, it feels so scary to sit at a suspected killer on a twelve-hour flight," the witness says.

Denies involvement in the London murder

The suspect is in Danish custody awaiting extradition to English authorities. He opposes the extradition and denies involvement in the murder.

The suspect was arrested in October 2018 on suspicion of another murder, on a man in Malmö in early February 2018. That murder is still being investigated by the police, but the 22-year-old has been released from custody.

- That person is still suspicious, Chamber Prosecutor Fredrik Jönsson told Kvällsposten.

Scotland Yard has previously stated that the murdered 36-year-old had lived in London for about five years. The British police are also investigating the possibility that the 36-year-old has been involved in crime in Sweden and that revenge motives may be behind the act.
