The police department expressed their gratitude to everyone who participated in the search effort, acknowledging the significant contributions made by the police, armed forces, and Missing People.

The woman disappeared on Wednesday evening from her home in Norum, Djäkneboda. A large-scale search operation ensued, with Missing People organizing a particularly extensive effort on Friday.
