SEA 54-year-old woman named Fahima was murdered by her estranged husband in November 2025 on Önsta Gryta in Västerås, Sweden. The suspect, who had been separated from her, repeatedly violated a contact ban imposed by authorities despite multiple warnings. Social services had previously identified him as a risk for honor-based violence against Fahima, and she had moved into a protected residence in January 2025 due to concerns over his behavior. However, she chose to leave the shelter to stay closer to her adult children. The suspect was arrested and faces charges of murder and violating the contact ban. He denies both the murder and the alleged violations, claiming that Fahima approached him voluntarily. Police have acknowledged the need for improved handling of such cases and plan to establish a specialized contact ban unit starting in autumn 2026.
