Young boy is suspected to have been squeezed on expensive clothes

According to police, it is suspected that the boy was subjected to serious blackmail where the blackmailers used violence against him.

"Two perpetrators have forcibly tried to persuade him to hand over a garment of exclusive brand," says Sofie Särbring, internal commander of the police in Växjö.

The incident must have occurred in central Ljungby at 16 on Monday. The boy should have suffered minor injuries.

Police have heard two people who should have been identified. The two people must be over 18 and acquainted with the boy. It is unclear if they were served suspected of crime and on Monday night no one had been arrested in the case.
