Iceland's news sounds as bad as anywhere else, trying to paint it as a lover's quarrel, like that would have been any better.
Family and friends of 44 year old Latvian woman, Sanita Braune who died after a violent and brutal attack on September 21 say that the suspect, a Yemeni asylum seeker in his 30s, had stalked the victim prior to the attack. The two had talked online and met once, after which the attacker became obsessed with the victim. He is said to have been “enraged” that she showed no romantic interest in him.
Icelandic media has reported that the victim and the attacker had at some point had a “short personal relationship”. The Metropolitan Police confirmed this to the local news site Vísir, saying that the relationship had been over when the man attacked Sanita in her home on Hagamelur street west of downtown Reykjavík. The family rejects this account.
In an interview with the local newspaper DV friends and family members of Sanita say that she had at no time had a romantic or sexual relations with the attacker. She had talked to the man online and met him once, but wasn’t interested in meeting him again or getting to know him any better. This left the man enraged.
