"It is mainly because of these expulsions, which have run amok and received a lot of attention recently. I feel I don't want to sit around and legitimize this anymore," Beckman, professor of political science at Stockholm University, told DN.
He served on the council as one of six members and had an appointment until June 2027.
According to Beckman, the expulsions violate the first chapter of the Constitution, which states: "Public power shall be exercised with respect for the freedom and dignity of the individual."
The issue of young people who grew up in Sweden and are threatened with deportation when they turn 18 has become a political hot potato.
