A person who raped and sexually harassed two underage children in the Swedish city of Upplands Väsby is now being charged.
In November last year a 12 year old boy was threatened with a knife and raped. After being raped, the young boy offers the attacker his weekly allowance in order to let him go free. The suspect took the money and let the child go.
Police were alerted, however they did not manage to find the suspect.
A few weeks later, an 11 year old boy is assaulted in the same city.
The boy manages to escape and run home to his parents. However, the parents not only call the police, but they also go out to find the pedophile who attacked their son.
Parents to the boy manage to find the suspect and they do a citizens arrest while waiting for the police to arrive.
The 16 year old suspect is a citizen of Somalia and came to Sweden in 2017 together with his family.
He was suspected to have committed 35 different crimes, including assault, threats and burglary. He had even been taken by social services, despite this he was able to rape and sexually assault two children.
Thanks to DNA evidence, police manage to connect the attacks against the 12 year old boy and the 11 year old boy to the same suspect.
He is now being charged with raping a child, sexual harassment and illegal threat. As part of the prosecution, his mental state will be evaluated by a psychiatrist.
