Share

The investigation where an 26-year-old man has been suspected of having subjected a woman to illegal threats has been closed. The incident occurred on May 9 in connection with the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmö. The prosecutor is available to the media this afternoon.

The investigation has come to the conclusion that the man made a movement that hit the woman's film camera. The course of events was fast and was perceived differently by the witnesses of the incident.

"Today I have closed the investigation because I cannot prove that the act was capable of causing serious fear or that the man had any such intention", says senior prosecutor Fredrik Jönsson.

Case number in Malmö District Court: B 5921-24.
