According to the indictment, the 76-year-old inherited and sold a condominium in Stockholm in 2018 and then did not submit an income tax return for the same year.
The apartment was sold for just over SEK 7 million and the profit was SEK 6,821,859, which means that the state lost SEK 1,499,156 in tax.
"Very significant amount"
"The crime is serious because it involved very significant amounts," writes eco-crime prosecutor Oscar Strömblad in the lawsuit.
The prosecutor also demands that the 76-year-old be charged a tax surcharge of 40% on a basis of SEK 5,002,696 for the income year 2018.
The 76-year-old was convicted in 2011 of gross fraud, but then escaped imprisonment. If the 76-year-old is now convicted of a serious tax offense, the penalty is imprisonment for a minimum of six months and a maximum of six years. The man is also charged with bookkeeping violations and complicating tax control.
