Investigators into the December shootings at the Sello shopping mall in Espoo say that the suspected killer Ibrahim Shkupolli was not intoxicated when the shootings took place.
      The head of the investigation, Esa Grönlund of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), says that forensic studies showed no indications of alcohol, recreational drugs, or prescription drugs in Skupolli’s blood.
      On December 31st, Shupolli killed his former girlfriend in her apartment, after which he went to the Prisma department store in Sello and shot four of her colleagues.
      He then drove to his own apartment and shot himself.
     
Grönlund says that telephone records indicate that Shkupolli and his girlfriend had been in contact on several occasions during the weeks before the killings.
      “Shkupolli had mainly made contact with his former girlfriend.”
      The police have previously said that the two spent the evening before the killings together, in spite of a restraining order against Shkupolli.
