Prison sentence stands for death threats against Gotland County Governor – Swedish Radio

The prison sentence is not changed against the man in his 60s as the death threatened Gotland County Governor Cecilia Schelin Seidegård.

It was 2013 man threatened Governor Cecilia Schelin Seidegård by e-mail where he called her “leader Ewe” and wrote that the employees of the provincial government should be killed with a captive bolt or current.

The governor said the threats were obehadliga and offensive, and they made her feel bad. The man admits that he sent the email, but deny the charges. He does not understand that someone might take offense at what he wrote.

And it would be trial was not obvious. The prosecutor la down first police investigation of threats against the official. Then contested governor and the case was taken up again.

The condemned man has also previously been convicted of threats. People had the former regional director Bo Dahlöf and centrist Eve Nypelius who was then mayor. And those threats led to the municipality put up bevkaningskameror and started to lock the doors to their offices then located in Visby.

The reason that the man did this is according to himself that the provincial government and other authorities on the island of crushed his business and family. The district court noted in its ruling in 2014 that the threat is revenge from the man’s side.

The Svea Court of Appeal does exactly the same assessment as Gotland District Court and determines the judgment of one month in jail.
