Last minute The world stood up after Putins decision in

The men are sentenced to aiding and abetting aggravated public destruction and gross violation of the law on flammable and explosive goods.

However, a third man is acquitted by Helsingborg District Court.

The two convicted men have since the 2017 bombing been convicted of other crimes. This means that they now receive seven years each in a supplementary prison sentence.

“It has been a very powerful explosive charge aimed at the police, which is a basic function of society. There has also been a high risk of personal injury. This means that the crimes have a high penalty value “, says Chief Councilor Martin Persson in a press release.

It was October 18, 2017 as the police house in Helsingborg was shaken by a powerful explosion that caused major material damage.

A total of 120 people were in or near the police station, but no one was injured.

A surveillance film from the night in question shows how a person leaves a cooler bag at the police station. According to the prosecutor, one of the three accused men prepared the explosive charge, which he later handed over to the other two with instructions on how to handle the bomb.

The men, who deny the crime, are included in a criminal network, according to the indictment.
