The dead person was found outdoors in Hagfors municipality, and the police were alerted to the scene at 09.30 on Wednesday. A large area and two homes were cordoned off and a preliminary investigation into murder was launched during the evening.

Ahead of Saturday's detention hearing, three people had been requested to be detained on probable cause on suspicion of murder. One of the three, a man, was detained on Easter Saturday on probable cause on suspicion of murder.

Two were released

The other two were released. They remain suspects according to the district court, but no longer on probable cause.

"I do not share the district court's opinion here and am considering whether to appeal," prosecutor Per Svensson told SVT.

All three who were requested to be remanded in custody have denied any wrongdoing.

Initially, four people were arrested, suspected of involvement in murder, but for the fourth person, the suspicions have been dropped, according to the prosecutor.
