The story began with the man hiring the brothers’ cleaning company to empty rubbish from the apartment. He ended up signing a gift deed to donate the home to one of the brothers.
Completely voluntary, according to the brothers. But it is an explanation that the district court describes as “pure after-the-fact constructions”.
In the judgment, the Malmö district court writes that it is unthinkable that the man would give away his home to a person unknown to him.
The 82-year-old, who died earlier this year, had lived in the apartment since 1958. It was valued at just over two million kroner.
