In November 2024, she reported that she had been raped in a changing room in a culvert at Skåne University Hospital. This led, among other things, to the deployment of extra guards and the expansion of camera surveillance. The costs of the security measures at the hospital amounted to approximately half a million kronor, reports SVT Nyheter Skåne.

But according to the district court, her account is not correct.

The woman, who denies the allegation, was sentenced to pay a 50-day fine, reports Sydsvenskan.
