Only after 16 years could a perpetrator, suspected of the double murder in Linköping in 2004, be arrested.
Today, Daniel Nyqvist, 37, was convicted of the murders Mohamad Ammouri, eight years old and Anna-Lena, 56 Svensson.
The penalty has been set for forensic psychiatric care with a special discharge examination.

The Linköping District Court writes that Nyqvist has been convicted of murder in two cases pursuant to the indictment.
The penalty has been set for forensic psychiatric care with a special discharge examination. Nyqvist must be detained until care can begin. You must also pay damages to the parents and older siblings to one of the plaintiffs and to the state.

The case has eluded law enforcement for many years, and only earlier this summer was an alleged perpetrator arrested after police collaborated with genealogists who, with the help of the perpetrator’s DNA from the crime scene, they were able to call a suspect.

Immediately recognized

Already at the first interrogation, Daniel Nyqvist admitted that it was he who killed the woman and the child, and stated that at the time of the crime he felt bad for a long time and felt compelled to kill them.

When he reached Åsögatan, he first attacked the boy. I had seen others
people who were heading to Åsgatan, but were too big for him, Nyqvist said during interrogations.
– They could have fought.

He then saw Anna-Lena Svensson and attacked and killed her.

The District Court writes that it has been proven by recognition and technical evidence that it was Daniel Nyqvist who killed Mohamad Ammouri and Anna-
Lena Svensson. It is also shown that Daniel Nyqvist’s intention with the events was to kill.

Denies the murder

Nyqvist has denied the murder, but admitted it.

“Despite the fact that Daniel Nyqvist committed the acts under the influence of a serious mental disorder, and therefore, after seeing an inner image that made him feel compelled to kill, the district court considers that the circumstances were so serious that the facts must be judged as murder. “

Given that the forensic psychiatric investigation showed that Nyqvist suffered from a serious mental disorder at the time of the act, and still suffers from this disorder, the sanction will be forensic psychiatric care with a special discharge examination.
