Trained children despite rape charges – Västerbotten Courier

A martial arts trainer in central Sweden has been allowed to continue to train children and young people, although he accused of raping one eleven year old student, reported Swedish Radio Echo.

Already this summer, the chairman of the sports club have been informed of the suspicions against the man, but let him continue. Even after he was indicted in October, he was to be left, which is contrary to the Swedish Sports Confederation’s recommendations.

– We recommend the association to ask the leader to take time out, or say to the leader that “unfortunately we can not have you as a leader during the ongoing investigation, “said Anders Wahlström responsible for children and young people at the Swedish Sports Confederation.

the chairman of the association does not want to talk to echo but writes in an email that the coach is” innocent until proven “. He believes that he is suspected of not having any “with activities to do” when the alleged rape should have taken place in a private home.
