-by Malim Kardell, July 15, 2020

Wilma’s ex-boyfriend, Tishko Ahmed, 23, does not suffer from any serious mental disorder. That is according to the judicial psychiatric examination made public Wednesday. Now the 23-year-old risks life imprisonment for murder.

Wilma Andersson, 17, disappeared without a trace from her home in Uddevalla November 17 of last year. Two weeks later, police reported that a body part had been found, which meant that any hope that the disappeared girl would be found alive-no longer existed.

In June this year, the Uddevalla district court found Ahmed guilty of murder and desecration of a dead body.

Now comes (in) a statement from the Judicial Medical Agency that Wilma’s murderer, the 23-year-old ex-boyfriend, does not suffer from any psychiatric disorder.

According to the statement, which was made public when it was submitted to the Uddevalla district court on Wednesday, the 23-year-old did not did not commit the accused acts under the influence of a serious mental disorder. Thus, there are no medical conditions for him to  be turned over to judicial psychiatric care.

In practice, this means that he now risks being sentenced to life imprisonment, as the prosecutor, Jim Westerberg demanded during the main proceedings in Uddevalla district court in June. In connection with the court’s judgment, it was reported that the man should undergo a judicial psychiatric examination.
