The woman states in the judgment that she has ended the man - something he should not have wanted to accept. Instead, he has followed her and sent hundreds of text messages and messages on Messenger to her. In just one month's time, the number of messages he sent was over 700.
The man has on four occasions been notified of a contact ban on the woman. Something he didn't tell himself was what it meant.
The man himself denies unlawful persecution and states that it is reasonable to send 100 messages a day to someone he likes.
The district court considers that the man's behavior has been reckless and abusive.
The 40-year-old is sentenced to prison for one month and two weeks and will pay damages to the woman of SEK 11,000.
