A 16-year-old boy is being prosecuted for data intrusion at a school in Eskilstuna after reading messages on another student's Snapchat account, reports P4 Sörmland.

In the interrogation, the affected student stated that she had left her computer in logged-in mode in the classroom when she was going to talk to a teacher. She had also been logged in to her social media account.

The boy is then said to have accessed the computer and read the messages, and subsequently told other students about what he had read.
