The payment will be made since the Children's and Pupils' Ombudsman (Beo) has requested that the municipality compensate the boy.

It's nice that my son gets to know that he has been right all along in what he felt. That there is an authority that stands behind and says that this is not how you do it, that this is not okay. In that sense, it's a victory for us, after all the time that has passed, says the boy's mother to the newspaper.

The boy, who is now in high school, will receive 60,000 kronor for infringement and 30,000 kronor for pain and suffering.

We have decided so, because we see that we have failed in handling the case. And we strive for a world-class education and a school where you should feel safe, says Viveca S Dahl, head of elementary school operations in Lund, to the newspaper.
