The report, in which both HVB and Sis homes in Sweden have been reviewed, was previously a classified intelligence report. Now the police choose to i a press release get information out of it.
Several HVB homes are run by criminals and staffed by people who are members of criminal networks, according to the police.
Between January and November last year, 2,865 escapes and deviations from Sis and HVB homes came to the attention of the police.
The police expect that every tenth deviation leads to a serious violent crime.
“Repealing children’s basic rights to free movement and then placing them in facilities that not only lack proper care programs but are even run by serious criminals is extremely serious. This risks causing some children to come out in a worse condition than they were in when they were placed at HVB,” says Peter Allheim, commissioner at Noa, in the press release.
