Sweden Democrat politician in Skaraborg indicted for multiple rapes

A Sweden Democrat municipal politician from Skaraborg has been charged with multiple counts of rape.

It concerns a total of three rapes against two different women, which, according to the indictment, were committed in 2024 and 2025, which P4 Skaraborg first reported.

The man was arrested in December last year after one of the women called 112.

His mobile phone was seized, and it contained material concerning another woman, says prosecutor Ylva Lundgren.

In addition to the technical evidence in the form of the politician's own photos of some of the abuse, there are also DNA traces.

I think there is a good amount of evidence; there is a lot of technical evidence, says Ylva Lundgren.

The man is also charged with sexual assault and offensive photography. He denies the charges.
