[ad_1]

It was on December 3 that Emilia was found dead at Vramsån on Tollarp in Skåne.

The next day, they arrested her 21-year-old childhood friend, who is now charged with the murder. According to the prosecutor, on November 22 he killed Emilia by cutting her across the upper body with a sharp object. In connection with this, Emilia has ended up in Vramsån.

The trial began Friday morning with prosecutor Kristina Amilon demanding that Emilia’s childhood friend, 21, be convicted of murder.

The suspect denies the crime through defense attorney Melka Kjellberg.

The 21-year-old has explained in the interrogation that he remembers that during the day he was in the area around the E22 and that there he fell into the water. In other respects, he believes he has suffered from memory gaps.

The police have heard him 28 times in ten months and have consistently denied that he murdered Emilia.

The police preliminary investigation report is extensive, more specifically around 10,000 pages.

Debt information

Among the main evidence of the prosecutor are several objects that were found at the scene and are now linked to the 21-year-old.

There was, among other things, a drunk PET bottle with DNA on the cork of the alleged killer and the victim.

When the police searched the house of the 21-year-old, a long-haired wig that belonged to Emilia was also found. The wig was wet and had plant parts between the hairs, believed to have come from Vramsån. On a jacket that belonged to the 21-year-old, there was also cutlery in an inside pocket and the cutlery probably dates back to Emilia’s house. Several of Emilia’s belongings were scattered along a long stretch of watercourse. A kitchen knife and bone iron that are related to the murder are also seized.

The 21-year-old is also described as having increasingly had problems with drugs. There is also information that Emilia had debts both with the alleged murderer and with others.
