More than seven years after a 41-year-old woman was found lifeless in a canal in Frederiksværk, Danish police are seeking a dog walker who may have seen three people relevant to the investigation.

North Zealand Police said the person walked a dog near Brotorvet and Torvet between 2:30 and 4 a.m. on the night between April 30 and May 1, 2019. Police are also appealing to anyone who knows who the dog walker might be.

Police Commissioner Jakob Rahbek said he could not provide more specific information about the investigation. “We still suspect that a crime may have occurred,” he said.

Police said in 2025 that divers had searched the canal for objects after receiving new information.

We still suspect that a crime may have occurred.
