It was the 29-year-old himself who raised the alarm on March 22 about an assault in Malmö.

He claims that two unknown masked men attacked the two, says prosecutor Adrien Combier-Hogg.

The defendant had himself received a deep, bleeding wound in his calf. When the police arrived at the crime scene, he had left, but by following the bloodstains, the police were able to find the murder weapon, a bayonet hidden in a bush.

My assertion is that this bayonet comes from the father, says the prosecutor.

The prosecutor believes that a possible motive for the deed is that the son was in a pressured life situation with large debts and abuse.

He has quite a lot of pressure on him from home to get his life together, says Adrien Combier-Hogg.

The prosecutor claims that the father was in a vulnerable position in relation to the son, partly due to the age difference and partly because the father was ill. This may affect the sentence.
