Police were called to Spenshult on August 12 this year after an alarm about a knife rupture. At the time, the 24-year-old man who is now facing prosecution was arrested.

According to the lawsuit, the man has tried to kill two other people who were at the Migration Board's residence in Spenshult. One of the victims must have sustained wounding to the head, neck and upper arm - after repeated cutting.

The other person who the prosecutor says was subjected to attempted murder had injuries to the right cheek and neck.

He, too, is charged - for gross mischief - after kicking the knife man in the head, after being arrested by order guards and lying on the ground.
