The man, who is 65 years old, was arrested two weeks ago on suspicion of rape against a child and child pornography crime. The man is now being remanded in custody for two new cases of child rape, one sexually abusive and gross child pornography crime.

The new suspicions of rape and sexual harassment concern another child than the case he has already been arrested for. In total, there are currently two children whom the man is suspected of raping.

More hearings await

Chamber Prosecutor Sofia Gullbrandsson, who is leading the preliminary investigation, says that more cases have been heard in the case and that further suspicions are being investigated.

- The reason why I judge the child pornography offense as gross is the extensive seizures we made where we found films and pictures with child pornographic content. That material is now being analyzed and we continue to hear both the plaintiff and the witnesses, said Chamber Prosecutor Sofia Gullbrandsson in a press release.

Another man is suspected of failing to disclose rape to children. That man is on the loose, but the suspicions against him remain.

The detention negotiations take place on Thursday, July 2 at 2 pm.
