The suspects were all between 15 and 17 years old at the time of the incident. The indictment concerns gross sabotage against blue light operations and also two cases of gross violence against an official.
– Similar to our previous prosecutions, our main evidence is extensive film material. We mean to clearly show how active the defendants have been by, among other things, throwing stones at police officers who were exposed to great danger through the defendants’ reckless actions, says Thomas Ramstedt, District Attorney and head of the preliminary investigation, in a statement.
Today’s indictment is the third indictment relating to the events in Norrköping during the Easter weekend 2022.
Further charges against at least ten suspected persons who have turned 18 and who participated in the Easter coup in Norrköping are expected to be brought later in the spring, the Public Prosecutor’s Office writes in a press release.
