The trial on Wednesday was partly held behind closed doors and partly when the court went through the forensic psychiatric examination and the Social Board's advice, but also part of the final plea was conducted behind closed doors.
Prosecutors and defenders summarized their evidence. In his final plea, Prosecutor Thomas Olvmyr pleaded guilty to 1.5 years in prison for the 44-year-old.
Should there not be a prison, prosecutors sought conditional judgment or probation. He had no stronger views on which of the penalties would be the case, but also called for deportation (which is not compatible with supervisory supervision).
Take care of the legs
It was on June 10 this year that the 44-year-old appeared threatening at the central station in Malmö. The man claimed to have a bomb and firearms in his bags. The police then shot the man with three shots in the legs. The central station was evacuated for several hours and train traffic was stopped.
Several people saw the incident and a witness filmed it on their mobile.
- The man tried to go into the pharmacy at the station but guards prevented him. He stayed for almost an hour until two policemen showed up and then shot him. The man was very strong, a witness told SVT News Skåne.
The police informed after the incident that the threatening man had neither explosives nor weapons.
Forensic psychiatric examination
The district court considered the man guilty of grossly unlawful threats and threats against an official. But in order to decide whether he should be sentenced to care or prison, he was sent on a major forensic psychiatric examination.
According to the forensic psychiatric examination and the social council's judicial council's assessment, the man must have committed the suspected deeds during a serious mental disorder, but that he does not suffer from it today. Thus, it was judged that there was no medical condition to hand over the man to mental health care.
