Cut his toe off – get a shorter sentence
A man shot himself in the foot, and therefore the Svea Court of Appeal shortens the prison sentence for aggravated weapons crime a little, reports Dagens juridik.
The man had a sawed-off shotgun at home, which he claimed to have found outside. He didn’t have a license for it and when he took it out, under the influence of alcohol, a shot went off. The result – an amputated toe.
The district court’s sentence of eight months conditional, the court of appeal changes to imprisonment for two years and three months. But with a deduction for the foot injury, it will be two years.

Netanyahu: Not ready to end the war in Gaza
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is not ready to end the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
But a truce in the southern parts of the area is on the other hand, he says in an interview with the conservative Israeli television channel Channel 14.
– I will not let the counterpart in Gaza (Hamas) rearm, so the goal in the north is different from the goal in the south. But my answer is clear: I am ready for a truce in southern Gaza that I believe can bring home the hostages, says Netanyahu.
The reason is the peace agreement between Israel and Egypt, which borders the southern Gaza Strip, according to the prime minister.
