It is on the night of Saturday, March 11, 1995 that the 29-year-old ice hockey player Peter Karlsson is found badly injured on a bicycle track in central Västerås. But the perpetrator cannot be far away.
An anonymous tip points to a 19-year-old man with connections to a local Nazi gang.
Since there are no witnesses to the incident, much will be about the motive and what actually led to the brutal act. In the 19-year-old’s apartment, in addition to a morach knife, you also find a syringe and ampoules with Russian text and a leaflet with the text “Homosexuals do not deserve to live”.
The 19-year-old suspect claims self-defense due to sexual advances and the case goes all the way to the Supreme Court.
