On June 7, 2019, several multi-story buildings in the center of Linköping were damaged by a powerful explosion. Five days later, a bomb explosion caused a stir. In the image, the area of Ådalagatan where the bomb exploded.
Large parts of Linköping were blocked last summer after a bomb-like object was found, just five days after the big explosion in the city. Two 16-year-olds are now on trial for sabotage, Corren writes.
It was on June 7 last year that a powerful explosion shocked the residents of Ådalagatan. 109 apartments were damaged, some 20 people were taken to the hospital and it was described as a miracle that no one died.
When a suspicious object was found near the reception of the police station only five days later, the effects were great; Among other things, several authorities in the Garrison area were forced to close. Only after seven hours could the roadblocks be lifted after what turned out to be a bomb trap was knocked down.
According to the indictment, the boys placed the doll, then emailed police about the “bomb” and referred to the Hells Angels. They are also said to have filmed both the deployment and the making of the dummy bomb.
According to the prosecutor, it was information on a mobile phone that made the police suspicious of the 16-year-olds.
– It’s good that this ends. Given the bomb that went off a few days before the bomb ladder was laid, I think a lot of people are wondering what happened in Linköping at this time, Deputy Chief Prosecutor Ola Björstrand tells Corren.
In addition to the film material, one of the accused boys has left DNA traces on the stairs of the bomb.
The two defendants deny any wrongdoing. They are first prosecuted for sabotage, secondly for serious false alarms.
