This is stated by the police in Central and Western Zealand in a press release on Monday morning.

– The arrested man is suspected of having committed the murder of the 37-year-old woman. The investigation into the case is still ongoing at the highest level, and there are still many things that need to be clarified, says deputy police chief Kim Løkvist in the press release.

The man will be produced for remand on Tuesday. Both the killed woman and the arrested man are Afghan citizens.

The woman was attacked with a knife right after she finished work on Thursday evening, according to the police.
