Here are the biggest scandals in SD

Sweden Democrats party secretary Richard Jomshof began by saying that he would not name anyone other than Gustav Kasselstrand, president of the SDU, and Youth League deputy chairman William Hahne, who recently was also elected Chairman of the Stockholm SD district.

That he spoke openly about those he justified that they themselves have spoken in the media about the exclusion cases.

Aftonbladet has previously been able to tell that the two SDU peaks were suspected of having forced himself a USB memory stick to save a fellow party member from exclusion.

Seven thrown out of the SD

A total of SD National Executive examined 24 cases from member committee told Richard Jomshof.

Members Committee had recommended the party to rule out eight of them.

The party chose to go against the recommendation in one case and throw now seven of them that were examined.

In addition to these six or seven people, Jomshof could not state the exact number, chosen to themselves leaving their involvement in SD. They have according to party secretary was doubly occupied in both SDU various extremist organizations.

Some of those who reviewed shall remain in the party – but be warned in writing. Other left entirely without action when it has not been able to prove their guilt.

The majority of the excluded belong to the Youth League.

“Protected extreme”

According to Richard Jomshof is it is clear that Kassel Beach and Hahne violated the party’s rules and acted in such a way that they can not be regarded as Sweden Democrats.

– We know they have defended and protected extreme forces. It’s about what we call the USB affair and that they had knowledge of the double-affiliated members, but still not chosen to act. They have chosen to drop in and highlight the extreme forces in our movement. There are evidently several people with extremist connections in the Board’s proposal as William Hahne put forth in Stockholm. One of them was a former Nazi sympathizer who had expressed opinions which shows that this person has not left these views behind it, says Jomshof.

According Jomshof stood a majority of the party behind the exclusion decision. One of them, however, has advocated a warning in front of exclusion of Hahnemann.

Earlier, Kassel Beach and Hahnemann denied the allegations – and stressed that the parent party’s exclusion cases against them are in fact part of a power struggle.
