    On Wednesday, a person was found dead in a wooded area in northern Stockholm.

    The police have opened a preliminary investigation into murder.

    – So far, the circumstances are unclear. With dead people, we usually start a preliminary investigation into murder, then you can see where it lands. It’s to open the toolbox, says Anders Bryngelsson at the Stockholm Police.

    – Relatives are not informed. You can see what it ends up in, he continues.

  • 17-year-old sentenced for gang-related shooting death

    On July 4, at least eleven shots were fired outside Gothenburg. The man who was shot dead was in his 25s.

    A 17-year-old boy is now sentenced to seven years in prison for murder, the district court says.

    “Despite the perpetrator’s young age, the penalty is a relatively long prison sentence, seven years. An adult had been sentenced to life imprisonment for the same act”, writes the district court in its judgment, which further describes the shooting as a “regular execution”.

    The shooting death was linked to the conflict between the two criminal networks Södra Biskop and Norra Biskop in Gothenburg.

    According to the investigation, the 17-year-old is linked to Södra Biskop and the victim is believed to have previously had a known connection to Norra Biskop.

    In connection with the shooting, the boy was seen leaving the crime scene, but a witness managed to take pictures of him. These are pictures that were used as evidence in the case.

    According to the prosecutor, the fatal shooting is considered a revenge shooting, as a few hours earlier on the same day there had been a shooting in Partille against two leading actors in Södra Biskop.

    In an exchange of words between Magdalena Andersson (S) and Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson (M) during the party leadership debate on Wednesday, Kristersson claimed that S wants to increase immigration to Sweden.

    Andersson countered by pointing to the restructuring of migration policy in 2015, which was made after an agreement between S and MP.

    During an infamous press conference after the agreement, spokesperson Åsa Romson cried, something Kristersson pointed out in today’s debate.

    – Only once did you make a decision with a crying green mouthpiece present who, under protest, finally, out of necessity, was able to make some difficult decisions, Kristersson said.

    Kristersson’s comment caused V leader Nooshi Dadgostar to rage.

    When it was Dadgostar’s turn to debate, she attacked Krisersson.

    – Unbelievable, unnecessary to humiliate someone who shows emotion at a press conference. A bit old, I’d say.

  • The new proposal: Children must be able to be monitored with foot shackles

    The government presents several proposals relating to crime among young people. In order to overcome the problems with juvenile delinquency, the government is now presenting the following proposals in the so-called “Milantvångsutredningen”.

    Among other things, it is about the social welfare board being allowed to make decisions about electronic monitoring of children who have turned 15.

    – With foot shackles, we can see that an increased number of young people can stay in their home and not be locked up, says Camilla Valtersson Grönvall at a press conference.

    At a press conference, Social Services Minister Camilla Waltersson Grönvall, together with investigator Anna Tengberg, presented several proposals regarding early intervention for children and young people, even when consent is lacking.

    – The proposals from the investigation should be seen as one of the pieces of the puzzle when we build out the social services’ new extended toolbox, says Social Services Minister Camilla Waltersson Grönvall.

    If the decisions are not followed, there may be consequences such as fines for parents.
