The police are investigating the case and believes that it is connected to the dispute regarding the so-called “Swimming Pool Garden”.

Teitur Atlason, the Samfylkingin’s deputy mayor, resigned recently due to a new zoning plan for Vesturbæjarlaugin. He said it is absurd that the majority of the city council has allowed the owners of detached houses to sell a plot by Vesturbæjarlaugin for free.
