16-year-old boy was murdered – today the trial begins

The murder is part of an ongoing gang conflict in Norrköping, where the city has suffered several serious acts of violence in recent years.

According to prosecutor Karin Sandén, the boy was shot with several shots in the neck, torso and chest after being tricked to the crime scene. The murder took place inside a densely built-up terraced area.

The trial begins

On Monday, the trial starts in Norrköping district court, where two 25-year-old men stand accused.

A man, a native of Gothenburg, is suspected of murder. According to the prosecution, he is the one who shot the boy.

The other man comes from Norrköping and is suspected of aiding and abetting murder. Among other things, he is said to have received instructions via encrypted chats, provided accommodation and a taxi for the shooter and stored the weapon.

Both men are previously convicted of various crimes. The prosecutor is now demanding deportation for the accused.
