The raid, which was carried out during the weekend during a house search, is linked to violent acts that took place in Skaraborg earlier in the summer, according to the Prosecution Authority. Since then, the police have carried out several raids, including five people being arrested at the end of June, suspected of two different serious narcotics offenses that can be linked to the violent acts.

During the night of June 3, a villa outside Grästorp was subjected to an arson attack at the same time as an explosion occurred at an apartment in Lidköping. The villa had also been subjected to a shooting a few days earlier.
