misstänktes
"Misstänktes" means "was suspected" or "were suspected" in English.
Here, 'misstänktes' is the passive past form of 'misstänka', indicating that the subject ('han') was suspected or thought to be involved in the specific case.
Misstänktes han för fallet?
Was he suspected for the case?
In this sentence, 'misstänktes' again is used as the passive form in the past tense referring to the notion that three individuals were considered potential suspects in the event of the burglary.
Misstänktes tre personer för inbrottet?
Were three people suspected for the burglary?
The term 'misstänktes' here implies that someone assumed the manager might be guilty of fraudulent activities, employing the same past tense passive construction suitable for such contexts.
