The man is believed to be highly placed within a criminal network and is alleged to have been behind both bombings and shootings, including the attempted murder at Kungsmässan last year where two teenagers were recently convicted.

According to the district court, the man has made himself guilty of aiding and abetting attempted murder, serious weapons offenses and involving a minor in crime after, among other things, providing the pistol used in the shooting.

In a comprehensive case – which has been jointly prosecuted by four prosecutors – he is also convicted on a number of other points, including incitement to attempted murder and incitement to general destruction.
