Person has escaped from the district court
A person has escaped in connection with a district court hearing on Gotland, the police told Aftonbladet.
– We were alerted just before 12 o’clock that a person who was going to attend a district court hearing had escaped, says Daniel Vikdahl, press spokesperson for the police in the Stockholm region.
The person is suspected of a crime.
– It is not a crime of violence or a serious crime of violence. It is a person that the police on Gotland are already familiar with, says Daniel Vikdahl.
The man is not considered dangerous to the public.
– But it is still a person who is on the run from law enforcement or the authorities, so if you see him, we want you to call 112, says Daniel Vikdahl.
The man was dressed in a pastel-colored punk jacket with yellow accents and gray pants.
The police are out looking in various places in Visby.
– It’s about addresses that we know can be relevant to the person, but also streets and squares, says Daniel Vikdahl.

Swedish volunteer in Ukraine deceased
A Swedish volunteer in Ukraine has died in a car accident – this is confirmed by an organization for SvD.
He is said to have died in a collision with a combat vehicle, the newspaper writes. It happened in connection with an evacuation of a wounded person at the front.
The Swedish Foreign Ministry has not yet confirmed the information.
Court of Appeal: Wrong to exclude SD members from the union
The Court of Appeal rules that you can be an active Sweden Democrat and a member of Transport, TT reports.
Thus, the Court of Appeal makes the same assessment as the district court.
The background is a dispute between SD politician and truck driver Mats Fredlund and the Transport Workers’ Union, which goes back more than four years.
In connection with his being elected as a member of the Sweden Democrats in Kiruna’s municipal council in 2018, he was excluded from the Transport Workers’ Union.
The Court of Appeal writes in its judgment that the Transport Workers’ Union must compensate Fredlund for his court costs with just over SEK 222,000.
The top lawyer is denied exclusion
Aftonbladet has been able to reveal how the top lawyer Neo Barstedt, who last year brought in close to ten million kroner as a public defender, has cheated the courts.
The review that Aftonbladet did showed how Neo Barstedt provided untrue information about police interrogations and how he repeatedly charged for the same time in several different cases.
In February, he was expelled from the Bar Association and now he receives the same message from the Supreme Court, reports the Siren news agency.
HD also notes that Barstedt has violated good legal practice on several occasions.
In his appeal, Barstedt had requested that the exclusion be reduced to a warning with a penalty.
In June, a preliminary investigation regarding fraud against Neo Barstedt was started.
Diesel price at pre-war level
Fuel prices continue to fall. A liter of diesel now costs under SEK 23 per liter, which, except for one day in August, is the lowest price since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on February 24, writes TT.
The price of petrol is also falling. SEK 18.54 per liter is lower than it has been since January. The price of oil has fallen significantly around the world recently.
Arrested for murder released
The three people who were arrested on reasonable suspicion of the murder of a 25-year-old man in Södertälje on Sunday have been released, according to the Public Prosecutor’s Office.
– We continue to work with full force in the investigation. The three men are still suspects in the investigation, but my assessment is that there are not sufficient reasons to request their detention, says District Attorney Patrik Viklund in a press release.

“There is a clear link between fraud crime and the deadly gun violence,” the police write.
Germany: More arrests expected
On Wednesday, the German police arrested 25 people suspected of having planned a coup in Germany.
Several arrests are now to be expected, according to German authorities on Thursday.
Nineteen of those arrested are now in custody and investigators link the group to the far-right Reichsbürger movement, which wants to re-establish a German empire.
About 150 house searches have already been carried out where weapons have been seized that the police suspect would be used in the planned coup d’état, according to the German public service channel ZDF, TT writes.
The head of Germany’s constitutional protection, Thomas Haldenwang, considers the movement’s plans to have posed a “very real danger”.
Swedish companies worried about the future
The outlook for the future has not been so dark in 14 years, according to the Swedish Business Association’s business panel. Around 5,000 companies, large and small, have answered questions about how they view sales, investments and the number of employees going forward, TT reports.

What happens in the Tove case?

State a problem with Facebook as you wrote, haven’t they changed their name to Meta?
Iv’s sale
The company itself changed its name to Meta about a year ago.

According to the police, it is a medical matter. They don’t want to say more than that.
You write that “At the Sunes Elefant restaurant in Visby, Nooshi Dadgostar eats steak and fries drenched in a brownish semi-transparent sauce”, but what did she drink with the food…? It does not appear.
Pelle brokers peace
Hey!
You cannot include everything in your text. In the documentary, it appears to be carbonated water in the glass. It could also be Sprite. But now I fall into speculation.
Pleasant evening!
What happened to Tove who was murdered? No newspaper writes more about the murder that I can find.
Pia
Hi Pia! The police and prosecutors have announced that they will wait to say more about the case while the investigation is ongoing. Both women are still in custody and on December 15, prosecutor Adam Rullman is expected to request that they be re-arrested, if nothing else happens.
