It has been six months since 21-year-old Tove disappeared in Vetlanda, only to be found dead at the beginning of November in a wooded area outside the city.

Two women, aged 18 and 20, are in custody on suspicion of murder and grave breach. 

Prosecutor Adam Rullman has always announced that the investigation is progressing and writes in an email to SVT that the plan to bring charges on March 17 seems to be working.  

"But it depends on how the final service goes and if any further investigative measures are requested," he writes. 

At the same time as the preliminary investigation is now out for service, the Eksjö district court is planning for trial dates.

A total of three days are calculated for the main hearing on March 27, 29 and 30 and a reserve day, on March 31.  

However, the District Court writes that it is "under the condition that prosecution is brought according to the current decision on prosecution extension". 

Suspected of having been murdered in the friend's apartment 

Tove is suspected of having been murdered in the 20-year-old's apartment on the night of October 17.

According to the suspects, the two women allegedly beat her to death and then hid the body in a wooded area a mile outside Vetlanda.  

Both women deny murder, but the 20-year-old has admitted assault and breach of peace.

The 18-year-old's lawyer told SVT's documentary team in February that she helped carry the body, but she denies any crime as she says she carried out the actions under threat.
