In response to the distressing situation, Frolunda HC issued an official statement, expressing their deep concern. The statement highlighted the significance of hockey in Henrik's life and emphasized their commitment to supporting his family and teammates during this challenging time. They have also enlisted professional assistance to provide the necessary support to all affected parties.
After a week of uncertainty, Henrik was located, but the circumstances took a grim turn. Multiple minors have been apprehended in connection with his disappearance, and the authorities are now treating the case as a homicide. While two individuals have been released, a 16-year-old boy remains in custody on suspicion of murder.
Prosecutor Andreas Ekengren provided insight into the ongoing investigation, revealing that the 16-year-old suspect acknowledged meeting Henrik on the night he disappeared but denies any involvement in a crime. The police are actively working to determine the motive behind this tragic incident.
Our heartfelt condolences and thoughts go out to Henrik's family and the entire Frolunda hockey team during this incredibly difficult time.
