The verdict was handed down in Värmland’s district court on Monday at 14. There it became clear that the man must serve three years and six months in prison. The Norwegian has also been sentenced to pay just over NOK 1.5 million in compensation to Nav. The prosecutor asked for four years in prison for the Norwegian, who was charged with desecration of a corpse and fraud of millions. It was on 16 March 2023 that the police found the body of a woman in her 60s in a freezer on a farm in Värmland in Sweden. The public prosecutor in Sweden has believed that the man has kept his partner hidden for at least five years. The couple originally came from Agder, but had settled on a small farm in Värmland. Violated the burial peace During this period, he is said to have raised the woman’s pension, which he denied in court. The prosecutor has also emphasized in an aggravating way that the man had food in the freezer where he kept his dead partner, which further violated the peace of the grave. The case has received major headlines, not least because the man was charged with murder. But the autopsy report could not establish any definite cause of death, and the murder charge was therefore dropped. The man’s defender, Stefan Lilliebäck, has since said that the woman died of cancer. Changed explanation In questioning with the police, the man first admitted to having put the woman in the freezer, and that afterwards he “had problems with his head”. But during the trial he reversed himself and pleaded not guilty to all charges, stating that he had not put anyone in a freezer. He also repeated several times that his partner is not dead and that they communicate using telepathy. A Swedish judicial council has since determined that the Norwegian is criminally sane. The Judicial Council’s conclusion supported an earlier forensic psychiatric examination of the man, which also determined that he is criminally sane. It was the man’s defense attorney who demanded that the judicial council also decide on the question of sanity.
