Social worker did not report child abuse – Helsingborgs Dagblad

– It came to our attention only when they came in the second time. Then the police reported the hospital, said the prosecutor, Carl-Johan Granlund.

In February, the girl came in with more severe injuries. Then it was discovered that the boy was seriously injured.

– The damage is so extensive and the children have hovered in mortal danger, says the prosecutor, Carl-Johan Granlund.

The father prosecuted now for extremely serious assault. The lawsuit states that he showed “extreme recklessness by beating a defenseless infants whom he had in his care.”

In retrospect, the father’s explanation of daughter femoral fracture was that he accidentally squeezed her against a changing table. But the girl was later also rib fractures and bleeding in the brain. The boy had multiple skull fractures.

Mr Nilsson is responsible manager of social services in Sandviken and the one who received the first orosanmälan. He does not want “to answer questions about specific individuals”, but also refuses to comment on the social services’ actions.

When TT asks if it was right judgment not to notify the police – despite her father’s fear of damaging the children and the lack of explanation for her daughter’s broken leg – says Jan Nilsson conversation abruptly.

– I think it’s rude when you call here and insinuate things, says he said.

The father, in their 30s, has been detained since 22 February. In the beginning was also the mother custody, but she is completely written from the investigation. The trial begins May 11
