A man is charged with the murder of a woman outside Katrineholm. He is suspected of trying to set fire to the house to cover his tracks.

A woman in her sixties was found dead in her home outside Katrineholm earlier this year. A man in his forties has been charged with murder and is suspected of attempting to set fire to the house afterward to cover up evidence. The victim and suspect were friends but not romantically involved. According to prosecutors, the man claims the woman became angry with him and attacked him, prompting him to strike her with a clenched fist. However, he denies that these blows caused her death and cannot explain how she died. Prosecutors allege he used a square marble stone or decorative tile as a weapon during the attack. Additionally, he is accused of attempted arson after the murder, though the house did not catch fire due to temporary circumstances. The suspect denies all charges. He has prior convictions for drug-related offenses.
