It was the night of Friday that a man in his 50s was shot dead in his home in Tullinge, in Botkyra municipality.

The two who are now arrested for the fatal shooting are 19 and 17 respectively.

- They are primarily reasonably suspected of murder and secondarily of aiding and abetting murder.

Interrogations have been held and they deny the crime, says Mikael Carlsson, chamber prosecutor at Södertörn's prosecutor's chamber. 

Reasonably, the level of suspicion is lower, but the prosecutor says that the investigative work continues and that additional information may be added this week.

By Tuesday at the latest, he must make a decision on whether those arrested should be remanded in custody.

The son was singled out in the media before the fatal shooting

The man in his 50s is previously unpunished.

On Thursday, his 25-year-old son was singled out in the media as a suspect in a shooting at a villa outside Uppsala.

The home has connections to the Kurdish fox and the crime is said to have been part of the ongoing conflict between Stockholm's criminal network.

Just a few hours after the 25-year-old was singled out in the media as a suspect in the villa shooting, his father was shot dead in his home in Tullinge in Botkyrka.

Will investigate connection

Whether the publication of the 25-year-old's name and picture led to the shooting is not clear.

The Prosecutor's Office in Uppsala, which handles the case of the villa shootings and which approved the publication of the 25-year-old's information, has said that they will investigate whether there is a connection.

Prosecutor Mikael Carlsson, who is investigating the fatal shooting in Tullinge, tells SVT that he knows the information but does not want to comment on a possible connection.
