On Friday afternoon, June 6, the police received a report that the severely injured woman had been found in her home. The woman was rushed to the hospital. When officers arrived at the house, it turned out that part of the house was ransacked. A window at the front of the house was also broken. The woman died last weekend in the hospital. A Major Investigation Team (TGO) has been established. Forensic Investigation (FO) staff conducted extensive research in the house.
Crime more likely
It is still unclear what exactly happened. The investigation team is conducting extensive research into all possible scenarios and circumstances. However, the scenario that the woman became a victim of a crime and was not severely injured due to an illness or accident is becoming increasingly likely.
