– The charge has now been extended to also apply to attempted murder by poisoning. This was in connection with the deceased being hospitalized with poisoning in February this year. 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, says police attorney Ole Andreas Aftret at Trøndelag police district in a press release on Wednesday. The accused husband denies killing his wife. More unanswered questions – The police can inform that the cause of death is believed to be due to poisoning with a strong pain-relieving preparation that is often used in medical treatment. As of now, the central focus of the investigation is to clarify how the deceased ingested this substance, says Aftret. Based on the information obtained so far in the case, no clear answer to that question has been found. It is also important for the police to clarify how this substance was acquired. The police are now asking for tips from people who may have knowledge of how the substance was acquired and when this may have happened. The police sealed the door to the house where the woman was found.
