The report was filed in connection with the interview with KD leader Ebba Busch on Aug. 3, when Ekot, according to KD, presented incorrect figures about healthcare queues.

"The Christian Democrats are reporting Sveriges Radio for not meeting the requirement of impartiality and objectivity in Ekot's party leader interview with Ebba Busch on Aug. 3. This could directly affect the election," the party writes in its report, according to Aftonbladet.

However, Ekot said on Friday evening that the statistics presented in the interview are correct.

"The data on which our information about waiting times is based comes from the official statistics of the Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions (SKR). We also contacted SKR today to get confirmation of the information we previously received," writes Sofia Söderholm, publishing manager at SR Ekot, in an email to TT.
