Man found dead in holiday home at Flisa Police received notification of an unexpected death via AMK on 30 December. A cohabiting couple must have stayed alone in a cabin on Flisa and it was the woman in her 70s who reported the death. The dead man, also in his 70s, requested an autopsy. The woman in her 70s was arrested in the Oslo police district and charged with murdering her roommate. On Friday morning, the police in Innlandet issued a press release stating that they are investigating a suspicious death. According to the press release, it was findings at the scene that led to a request for an autopsy on the dead man. The woman was remanded in custody for four weeks with a letter and visiting ban due to the risk of tampering with evidence. The woman did not consent to the imprisonment and appealed the ruling. Defense attorney Helge Hartz tells news that the district court released the woman after an appeal against the imprisonment. However, the police appealed against the decision, and the woman had to be remanded in custody until a decision is reached. The Eidsivating Court of Appeal believes that there are reasonable grounds for suspecting murder, and that there is a risk of tampering with evidence if the accused is released. She therefore remains imprisoned until 9 February with a letter and visiting ban. The police confirm what VG has previously reported, that the man died from a gunshot to the head. They state that they still have not found the murder weapon. At the same time, the woman is requested to continue being imprisoned for four new weeks.
