The main hearing against two sisters charged with attempted murder of their father concluded today. The women described a long-standing conflict within the family and what they did during the time the father was subjected to the crime. Prosecutor Viktor Wetterö argued the women are guilty of attempted murder and should receive ten years in prison, or if convicted of aggravated assault, a sentence at the higher scale.
The sisters' defense lawyers said the evidence is too weak and they should be released. The district court decided the sisters will remain in custody awaiting the verdict, which will be delivered on April 1.
