For nearly 15 years, female students received scholarships and help finding jobs at top international companies. Some were personally introduced to Epstein.

In April, Sweden’s national organization for women’s and girls’ shelters (Roks) filed a police report concerning several Swedes who are said to have been in contact with Epstein.

"The report we have received concerns procuring. I will not comment on which people are involved yet. So far, there are no suspicions," State Prosecutor Maria Hävermark tells P4 Stockholm.

According to Sveriges Radio, the Stockholm School of Economics says it is not aware of the police investigation but will cooperate with the police if necessary.
