All ten victims and the perpetrator will likely be identified tomorrow, unless there is an error in the DNA samples, says Lars Bröms, who leads the expert group, to the newspaper on Thursday.
The group has worked with DNA samples, fingerprints, and compared dental X-ray records from the ten reported missing with images of the victims' teeth.
Now all that remains is for the entire group to gather – forensic pathologists, forensic odontologists, and forensic geneticists – and agree on whether it is possible to establish the identities of the deceased.
All the collected material will collectively lead to us being able to identify the individuals, says Lars Bröms.
After that, the relatives will be notified of the deaths.
Syrian victims
Syrian citizens are among the victims of Tuesday's mass shooting at a school in Örebro, reports Alkompis.
This has been confirmed by the country's embassy in Stockholm, according to Alkompis. The number of Syrian citizens is not specified.
One of the victims is, according to Alkompis, a 29-year-old man who came from Syria in 2015. He was on his way to taking his exams and was to get married this summer.
He was a very kind person. He had no problems with anyone. He just wanted to finish his studies. And now he's gone. I can't believe it. Is this real? says the man's aunt to the newspaper.
According to Alkompis, Syria's highest diplomat in Sweden, chargé d'affaires, Ehab Al Yousef, will visit the deceased man's family in Örebro on Thursday.
In a post on the embassy's Facebook page, condolences are extended to the victims' families, "including dear Syrian citizens and the friendly Swedish people".
Bosnian citizens also
Bosnian citizens were also killed and injured in the attack, writes Bosnia and Herzegovina's embassy in Stockholm on Facebook. It concerns unofficial information that the embassy has received from family members.
The embassy "expresses its deepest condolences to the families of the victims of the tragic attack in Örebro".
Police investigation leader Anna Bergqvist confirms to the news agency AFP that there were "multiple nationalities, different genders, and different ages" among those killed during Tuesday's school attack.
