The man, who is in his 25s, is being prosecuted for two aggravated rapes, three aggravated sexual assaults, and five cases of offensive photography, which Upsala Nya Tidning was the first to report on.
In total, there are four plaintiffs, but only one of them has been able to be heard by the police.
The other three have a medical condition that prevents them from telling about the events themselves. What we know from their cases is what we've seen in the films, says prosecutor Anna Wärvik to Upsala Nya Tidning.
Investigated for sexual assaults
The man, who worked for a private company, was arrested in early August after a woman with home care reported that she had been raped by him in her home. When the police investigated the case, evidence was found on the man's mobile phone in the form of films – not only of the reported rape, but also of additional rapes and assaults.
According to information to UNT, the man was investigated for sexual assaults within home care already a year ago. But the suspicions were dropped – and the man was able to continue working for almost a year.
The home care in Uppsala has come under scrutiny, after serious allegations emerged in early September that women – with home care from the municipality, had been subjected to sexual assaults by staff.
Has begun requiring criminal records
Now, the municipality has begun requiring extracts from the criminal records at employment. But it is far from all municipalities that do so, something that the government wants to change.
By the summer, a law is expected to clarify that municipalities will be allowed to make checks in the criminal records even at employment in, for example, home care or personal assistance.
The checks will not only be able to be made in the criminal records but also in the suspicion register, but only if charges have been brought.
