A 22-year-old man was sentenced in May to life imprisonment for three murders and four attempted murders in Uppsala and Eslöv.
The day before Walborg last year, a masked man opened fire on two other people outside a hair salon in Fålhagen in Uppsala.
One of those shot fled the scene, the other ran into the salon and hid in the toilet. A short time later, three young people, two boys aged 15 and 16 respectively and a 20-year-old man, were shot dead in the premises.
When the person in the toilet came out, the shooter had left the salon.
Sentenced to life imprisonment
A few days later, a now 22-year-old man was arrested and in May this year he was sentenced to life imprisonment for the three murders and four attempted murders - two of which took place in Eslöv in Scania two weeks before the triple murder.
The 22-year-old has denied any crime throughout the investigation and said during the district court hearing that he had been in Uppsala for "drug deals".
- I'm not a shooter. You simply have the wrong guy, he said during the trial.
The verdict was appealed to the Court of Appeal, which now shares the district court's assessment that the 22-year-old should be imprisoned for life.
- Who has ordered the murder missions, which criminal group the customer belongs to or what instructions the shooter received about the target has not been revealed in the case, says Court of Appeal advisor Anne Wartin in a press release.
