Peter Madsen has repeatedly changed his explanation of how Kim Wall died MIKKO SUOMINEN/GETTY IMAGESA Danish engineer accused of murdering the journalist Kim Wall and mutilating her body searched the internet for “beheaded girl agony” hours before they met on board his home-made submarine, a court heard yesterday. Peter Madsen, 47, has admitted dismembering Ms Wall’s body but denies murdering her. Ms Wall’s body parts were found scattered at sea TOM WALL/GETTY IMAGESHe told the court in Copenhagen that the Swedish journalist, whose body parts were found scattered at sea, was starved of oxygen when cabin air pressure suddenly dropped and she was overcome by exhaust fumes while he was on deck. He said that he already knew how to amputate limbs “to save lives”. “I do not see how that mattered at that time, as she was dead,” he said.
