Well, the women state these reasons themselves, according to the minutes of police interviews.<br>for example: http://rixstep.com/1/20110204,00.shtml<br><br>I pointed out that the case of Assange was dismissed once by a senior prosecutor and then resurrected by a politician-lawyer. <br><br>True or false? True. Eva Finne, prosecutor for Stockholm district, dismissed the case. and Claes Borgström, who is a politician and lawyer, then complained about that dismissal to Marianne Ny, <b> a more senior prosecutor.</b><br><br>So actually not true then. The case was opened by a on-call prosecutor, dismissed by Eva Finne, senior prosecutor.

This of course is evidence of the strong legal situation in Sweden, were decisions made by authorities can be appealed.<br><br>You post does show something interesting, that you don't understand the Swedish justice system and that Swedish prosecutors have: An absolute duty to prosecute. <i>Absolut åtalsplikt</i>. This means that it's a prosecutors duty to investigate potential crimes and do everything within their power to bring criminals to justice. This has the consequense of victims not being able to withdraw any accusations, which is another telling sign about the strong and safe legal situation in Sweden.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
