The Trump Organization, a company owned by ex-president Donald Trump, has been convicted of tax fraud, TT reports.
The charges concern that the company has been involved in avoiding benefit taxation for senior executives who had access to rent-free apartments and luxury cars.
The penalty can now be a fine of up to 1.6 million dollars – a relatively small amount that does not endanger the future of such a large company as the Trump Organization.

Unpaid debts increase the risk of suicide
Unpaid debts at the Kronofogden more than double the risk of suicide, according to Swedish research, writes Dagens Nyheter.
Yerko Rojas, lecturer in social work at Södertörn University, has investigated the connection between unpaid debts and suicide.
The results of his research show that people who have not paid their debts to the Crown Enforcement Officer have a two and a half times higher risk of committing suicide compared to the majority of the population.
– Unpaid debts are thus a risk factor in themselves, independent of other factors that we usually associate with suicide, says Yerko Rojas to the newspaper.
According to the Swedish Enforcement Agency’s incident reporting, suicide threats are the most common threat that the Swedish Enforcement Agency receives.
Norwegian FHI: The swine flu is back
Norwegian FHI warns that swine flu is back in Norway this year.
– It looks like the dominant virus will be H1N1, the swine flu, which has not been here for several years, says senior physician Preben Aavitsland at FHI to VG.
H1N1 long ago caused the Spanish flu and led to the 2009 swine flu pandemic.
The virus that is circulating now is a descendant of the swine flu and has changes that better avoid previous immunity and which we are thus less protected against, writes VG.
It is uncertain how good the flu vaccine is against this year’s variant – i.e. swine flu, writes FHI in a report.
The effect is probably a little worse than before, especially the infection protection itself. But that it will work well against serious illness and death, according to FHI.
WHO has previously warned that three viruses, influenza, RS virus and covid-19, together can have a high impact on healthcare and the population in Europe this winter.
The Public Health Agency has also sounded the alarm that the virus could lead to a strained long time in Swedish healthcare.

Finland must end its arms embargo against Turkey in order for the country to ratify their NATO application.
This is according to the Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu Reuters.
The Finnish foreign minister is to visit Turkey this week. The visit is important, according to Cavusoglu.
– Because there has not yet been a statement from Finland that they have lifted the arms embargo against us. We expect such a statement.
Turkey agreed this summer to admit Sweden and Finland into NATO after the three countries signed a ten-point agreement. Abolished arms embargo was one of the points.

State a problem with Facebook as you wrote, haven’t they changed their name to Meta?

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.

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.
