In mid-October last year, a father in his 40s was shot dead in a villa at Telefonplan in Stockholm. The following night, two women were shot dead in a villa in Tullinge. In both shootings there were children in the house and in the one at Telefonplan a mother and a child were also injured.
In the villa in Tullinge lives a famous artist who is related to a person who, according to SVT’s information, is connected to the so-called Zero network. But the prosecutor has previously told SVT that none of the crime victims had a connection to gang crime and that these are “innocent families with children”.

Teenagers must undergo a forensic psychiatric examination after a double murder in Tullinge
17-year-old was examined for mental disorder
In early June, a 17-year-old from Linköping was charged with the three murders and a 15-year-old boy with having ordered them. A 16-year-old girl and 22-year-old man were charged with aiding and abetting murder.
At the beginning of July, the proceedings in the district court were paused when, among other things, the 17-year-old accused of murder was to undergo a forensic psychiatric examination. It showed that he did not suffer from any mental disorder, neither at the time of the crime nor now.
Calls for prison terms for the teenage boys
The trial has now ended and the prosecutor has submitted his claims.
– I have requested 12 years in prison for the boy who was charged with all three murders and seven counts of attempted murder, 10 years in prison for the boy who was charged with inciting the murders and the attempted murders, two years and two months in closed youth care for the accused girl, as well as 16 years in prison for the now 22-year-old man, says senior prosecutor Helena Nordstrand.
The four defendants will be in custody until the verdict is announced.
