During the day, SVT has stated that Ahlenhed sent an e -mail with death threat to Roger Johansson (S), group leader for the Social Democrats in Region Västernorrland.
At 17.30, the party announces that Ahlenhed is leaving its political assignments:
“We strongly distance themselves from all forms of hatred and threats. There is nothing that belongs in a democracy. It also takes focus from the opportunities to talk about patient safety and a care on equal terms throughout Västernorrland.
It is particularly serious when political elected representatives engage in such and as a result, Mattias Ahlenhed will leave his political assignments for the Social Democrats in Sollefteå, ”Susanne Lindahl writes in a press release.
The regional council had to be canceled after threats
The hospital issue arouses strong feelings. When the regional council was to vote to decide the future of Sollefteå Hospital last week, they quickly canceled the meeting – after a letter received several death threats against leading officials and politicians in the hospital issue.
