Agreed to blast mission - regretted it and called mom

It was in April that the police raided a hotel in Almnäs in Södertälje. In one of the rooms was an 18-year-old man from the Jönköping area. According to the verdict, he had accepted an assignment to carry out an explosion in Södertälje. He would receive around SEK 70,000 for the assignment.

But during the afternoon of April 9, he starts writing with his mother. In the messages, he talks about the mission and his fear of what might happen if he quits.

"I have agreed to a very serious thing that I can't get out of now," the son writes to the mother.

Watch their conversation in the video above.

After a while he shares his position with the mother. They also talk on the phone and come to the conclusion that the police should be contacted.

The police were then able to intervene at the hotel and detain the 18-year-old.

In the judgment, the district court writes that he had indeed accepted the assignment, but then voluntarily helped the police to stop the plans. Therefore he is acquitted.

Two men are sentenced for having recruited

A total of five men were charged with having recruited the 18-year-old. Among other things, they are said to have helped with transport, money, hotels and equipment. But only two of the men, 20 and 28 years old, are sentenced. They receive one year and eleven months in prison each for branding to gross public dangerous devastation. According to the district court, it was the two who tried to recruit the 18-year-old.

The other three men are acquitted. Even they had helped, the district court considers that it has not been proven that they knew that the help was connected to the bombing plans.

According to information, the blast plans are connected to the Peppar network, which has close ties to the Dalen network and more recently also to the Salt Forest Falange in Södertälje.
