THREE NEWS YOU CAN’T MISS:
The cases of student debts with the Swedish Enforcement Agency have increased from 130,000 to 175,000 since the turn of the year, an increase of 35 percent, P3 Nyheter reports. Things like food, rent and electricity come before CSN debts, according to Davor Vuleta, personal finance spokesperson at the Kronofogden.
– When things are tough financially, I think that CSN debts end up lower on the priority list, says Vuleta.
Additional reasons may be that CSN debts have a low interest rate and a long repayment period.

The UN human rights office is sounding the alarm that 29 people have been executed in two days in Iran this week, according to reports. It is an alarmingly high number, according to the UN office.
Minorities such as Kurds, Arabs and people from the border province of Baluchistan are overrepresented among those executed. Some are executed without their relatives or legal representatives being informed.
During the entire month of July, 38 people were executed, as verified by the UN. In total during the year, at least 345 people were executed in the country, among them 15 women. Most of them are convicted of drug offenses or murder.
– It is incompatible with international norms and human rights, says UN office spokesperson Liz Throssell.
UN human rights chief Volker Türk is very concerned, she adds.
