At the end of the year 2017/2018 tightened the punishment for aggravated vapenbrott. The minimum penalty is now two years, which will lead to more arrest. More are also in prison and the total utredningssiffrorna has gone up by four per cent, according to the national police commissioner. Still, the national numbers when it comes to the deadly skjutvåldet in the wrong direction.
” It concerns me very much that all these measures do not bite. Therefore, we have notified our view to the government about what we should do and what society must do and we must stop growth and for that we shall put a stop to this terrible killing and the shooting, ” says Anders Thorngren.
” We had been working practically together in the cooperative council against organised crime with a number of authorities, and tried with different measures. We have thought of all of the actions we have taken and the priority we made of the lethal violence by firearms. When we saw that it was the same shot so we made a concentrated effort, we collected knowledge from all police officers and employees at the out on the field to see what we could do for ourselves and even took suggestions on what other agencies could do, particularly to break the growth. It’s not that we need help with the actual law enforcement, but it is growth.
– The most important thing is to break the growth and to ensure that there will be consequences. That takes care of the young people who, for various reasons, are about to enter a life of crime. For every person that gets shot, arrested or convicted, is it ten, fifteen steps forward. It may not be fair that the young people want to live a life that in all probability actually end up shot dead or happen to be bad for life.
– in Order to be able to get to grips with serious crime so you have to make certain checks. I know through that I met områdespoliser in particularly vulnerable areas to now work in a systematic way. Just when there’s been a shooting and when fighting very, very serious violence so the police have to go into a bit tougher.
” We have put in områdespoliser immediately following a crackdown can explain to people who have been verified what happened to calm down the situation. It is incredibly important that the Swedish police understand how we are perceived when we are out. Swedish law applies for the us and ethnic profiling is prohibited. If we don’t get people who trust us, who want to talk with us, and call us when something happens so we will end up in a very unhappy situation.
