GUILTY Sweden- Saga Forsgren Elneborg, 20, 7 months pregnant, strangled to death, by Mohamedamin Abdirisek Ibrahim, 22, April '23 *Poss. honour killing*

[IQuestion]

Can anyone tell me why Sweden took only 6 months to convict and settle his appeal, too??? There are cases I follow in the US that have gone on longer than World War II !! All he had to do was break up with her and move to another town if he didn't want his family to know. He deceived them for years...why not continue? Did he have a job and unable to relocate? Does his whole family get to visit him, in Sweden for the rest of his imprisonment, too?

SIx months from the prosecution of a crime to conviction and a settled appeal in a case with only one accused person is a very normal timeframe in Sweden in my opinion. The time between the prosecution to the beginning of the trial is usually not longer than two weeks (by law, although there are exceptions), and after the trial it may take up to two weeks for the sentencing. If there is an appeal against the sentencing, it takes in most cases two months before the case goes to trial in the Court of Appeal. Very few cases goes up to the Supreme Court, only when it's seen as a precedent-setting case.

The trials that have taken the longest time in Sweden have involved a number of suspects (20 - 100), or victims, and have been either criminal networks, economic frauds, an online p***phile, or online drug smuggling, and even in these cases the trials lasted about four to six months, one took a year.

Thank you Rikissa for your post. I am really impressed with the speed of their judicial process! It makes me realize our system does not have a sense of urgency in regards to the victims and their families.

Of course my question is: A "refugee" from what? Religious persecution, political persecution?

This story is as horrific as many others like it, but generally they take place in Muslim-majority countries and receive little, of any, notice in the West. In this case, Mohamedamin Abdirisek Ibrahim cleansed his family’s honor not back home in Somalia, but in ostensibly civilized Sweden, and...
