According to the indictment, the abuse began at a SiS home where a minor girl had been placed and the man was employed.

The Gothenburg District Court previously sentenced him to six years in prison. However, the Court of Appeal acquitted him, ruling that the prosecutor had failed to prove the victim's age at the time of the assault or that the sexual intercourse was involuntary.
