The 20-year-old suspected of murdering Wilma, 17, has been arrested on suspicion of murder since late November last year. He has always denied having murdered his girlfriend.

On Wednesday morning, prosecutor Jim Westerberg filed the charge with the Uddevalla District Court: just over 1,000 pages to answer what happened when Wilma died.

Exhaustive research

The prosecutor has been silent on what type of evidence has been collected. But, among other things, they have carried out 700 interrogations and carried out extensive technical analyzes in the groom’s apartment, which they say is the scene of the crime. Among other things, the police must have secured traces of blood in the suspect’s boyfriend’s apartment.

– Extensive investigative measures have been taken in the case. Among other things, a large number of interrogations have been conducted and an extensive crime scene investigation has been carried out. A large number of trace analyzes have been conducted at the National Forensic Center (NFC), which are now complete, chamber prosecutor Jim Westerberg says in a press release.

Sierra in the center of Uddevalla

Thursday, November 14, was the last time Wilma appeared. Then in the center of Uddevalla. Four days later, she was reported missing by her family. It became the starting point for one of the largest search efforts in history. Thousands of people searched Uddevalla and its surroundings to find it.

But on November 29, hope was extinguished. Later, the police announced that they had found a part of the body that allowed to say that Wilma was dead.

– We deeply regret that the search for the girl ended in this tragic way. Our thoughts go to the girl’s family and friends, Commander Lars Eckerdal said in a press release.

Forensic psychiatric examination

The alleged boyfriend has constantly denied having to do with Wilma’s disappearance or death. During the period of detention, he underwent a minor forensic psychiatric examination. It concluded that the man may have suffered a serious mental disorder when the alleged murder was committed. Considering that a person suffers from a mental disorder is something that can affect a punishment if a person is convicted of a crime.

In addition to the murder, the groom is suspected of breach of marriage.
