the investigation led by Stockholm police hate group. That it took a long time before the preliminary investigation is because it took time to translate the century, according to DN.

Leylani has also been highlighted recently after the dinner where he was seen together with Ilhan Sentürk, Swedish president of the Turkish extremist organization Grey wolves, and the then housing Minister Mehmet Kaplan.
