The police believe that the man in his 30s, who was arrested on Wednesday in connection with the murder case in Ørland, has sold the poison to the husband who has been charged. This is reported by Adresseavisen. It was on 30 June that the police received a report of a suspicious death in Ørland in Trøndelag. The husband of the deceased woman, in her 70s, was arrested and charged with murder on Tuesday 4 July. The woman died as a result of poisoning. Asking for isolation The man in his 30s will be produced for remand on Friday, charged under Section 231 of the Criminal Code, which concerns drug offences. – The basis for that is that he is said to have sold drugs to the man charged with murder, says police attorney Ole Andreas Aftret to news. – We are asking for a week’s imprisonment on the basis of the risk of tampering with evidence, so that we have the opportunity to secure sufficient evidence in the case before he is released. The man in his 30s was arrested on Wednesday, after the police investigation showed a connection between him and the husband of the deceased. He is not charged with murder or complicity in murder. Husband denies criminal guilt The man in his 30s was arrested on Wednesday, after the police’s investigation showed a connection between him and the husband of the deceased. He is not charged with murder or complicity in murder. The husband denies criminal guilt, but on Thursday still accepted four new weeks in custody. The first time will be in isolation, as a result of the new arrest. – It is so that they will not have the opportunity to talk to each other, said police attorney Ole Andreas Aftret to news on Thursday.

The victim did not die from the poisoning at the time because she was given medical treatment at St. Olav’s hospital. It is the same substance that has been detected in the deceased’s body on both occasions, the police announced in a press release on Wednesday.
