Sverrisdóttir took this as a threat against her life, but the case was investigated and subsequently dropped by Reykjavík police, who apparently saw no reason to believe Sverrisdóttir's life was threatened. While Sverrisdóttir will not comment on the matter, she did indicate that it could be possible for her to take the case to the state attorney's office. - pfn News News in English Mest lesið Reyndu að fá flugmann Maduros til að aðstoða við handtöku hans Erlent „Því miður er verklagið þannig“ Innlent Ökumaður stöðvaður með snjófargan á framrúðunni Innlent Andrés ekki lengur prins og látinn yfirgefa heimili sitt Erlent Öldungadeildin samþykkir að ógilda tollaákvarðanir Trump Erlent Orðin hæsta kirkja í heimi Erlent Viðbrögð hjólreiðamannsins að einhverju leyti skiljanleg Innlent Fjárhagsstaðan alvarleg og tímabundin ráðning ráðgjafans ekki endurnýjuð Innlent Hvasst, hlýtt og von á asahláku eða glerhálku Veður Opnun Brákarborgar frestað enn á ný Innlent
