Icelandic police are considering sending officers to Spain and Poland to interrogate men held in custody as part of an ongoing murder investigation. The case involves the recent killing of a Polish man on Kársnes, Iceland, over a week ago.

There is a good possibility that police officers will be sent to Spain and Poland to question the men.

Four individuals are currently in custody related to the incident. Two are being held in Iceland, while the other two are in custody abroad, in Spain and Poland. Sources indicate that three of the suspects are Polish nationals, and one is Icelandic. Police have confirmed that the victim sustained stab wounds but declined to comment on specific details, including unconfirmed reports of acid being thrown at the victim.

Elín Agnes Eide Kristínsdóttir, a senior superintendent with the police, stated that the men held abroad have not yet been interrogated. "There is a good possibility that police officers will be sent to Spain and Poland to question the men," she said. When asked if the suspects had been in Iceland prior to the murder, Egnés confirmed they had been in the country but would not elaborate further at this stage of the investigation.

In total, thirteen people have been arrested in connection with the case. Egnés noted that while some of these individuals are not believed to have direct ties to the murder, all aspects are under review.
