On Wednesday, a father was shot dead in front of his 12-year-old son when he confronted a gang in an underpass on the way to the swimming pool.
– Another border has been crossed in the Sweden of gang violence, says the prime minister in his speech and continues:
39-year-old Mikael was shot to death in Skärholmen
– Now a man who, according to witnesses, showed civil courage, dared to speak out, is being murdered. What we all wish someone would have done. This is not my Sweden, this is not our Sweden.
The incident shows how urgent it is to create change, says Kristersson:
– That we have to change the entire criminal policy and how important it is to now do everything that needs to be done to take back control.
