Think Pink's former CEO Fariba Vancor, previously Bella Nilsson, and co-founder Thomas Nilsson were sentenced to prison in June for serious environmental crime.

But Anders Gustafsson believes that Nilsson should be sentenced on several charges and have his business ban extended from five to ten years. Four more people are to be sentenced for serious environmental crime, according to the prosecutor. Including TV profile Leif-Ivan Karlsson, previously CEO of Think Pink, but who was completely acquitted by the district court.

The Think Pink scandal is Sweden's largest environmental case. The company received waste, mainly construction and demolition waste, which instead of being sorted was crushed and left near water protection areas, unprotected stormwater wells, homes and shoreline protected areas in several locations in central Sweden.
