“Preliminary investigation against PM Nilsson closed”
It’s strange… “nice” gentlemen like this never go there, no matter WHAT they’ve done. Don’t we have equality before the law in this country…?!
Magnus Nybom
Nilsson was sentenced for the 15 eels he pulled up in September 2021. Then he was caught red-handed and eventually had to pay SEK 38,000 in fines.
The preliminary investigation that has now been closed concerned suspected poaching since 2008. Apparently, not enough evidence was found to continue investigating.
