According to the indictment, the crimes were committed from southern Spain. There, one of the suspected persons – a Swedish man – is alleged to have called mainly elderly people in Sweden and, through long phone calls, persuaded them to make a bank transfer "to save their money".
The man is suspected of 15 crimes. Another person – a woman who is a Cuban citizen – is suspected of eleven crimes.
"It has been very stressful situations for the plaintiffs. The investigation shows that part of the money has gone through money launderers to the accused woman who had a relationship with the accused man," says Ginger Johansson, senior prosecutor, in a comment.
According to the police, it is a matter of organized crime with links to a criminal network.
