A couple of days ago, there was a terrorist bomb alert in Gothenburg, Sweden's second largest city on Sweden's West Coast.

Four people was arrested, but it seems like the police, and the Swedish Security Service (Säpo) what investigates and tracks foreign and domestic threats, were a bit hasty.

From "The Local":
Erik Nord at Västra Götaland police confirmed that a 39-year-old father of four arrested on Saturday was never suspected of an offence.

"Some form of mistake occurred," he told the local Göteborgs-Posten daily.

The 39-year-old was arrested in connection with a major police raid early on Saturday. He was forced to sit naked on the floor with his hands over his head with a weapon directed at him, the newspaper reported.
Emphasis mine. This was in his home, in front of his children.
He was supposed to get brought in for questioning. Edited to add: As a wittness...


It's going to be very interesting to see where this terrorist threat information comes from. I have an idea, but I'm not going to spoil the fun.

Much ado about nothing...

The preliminary investigation into four Gothenburg men suspected of preparing acts of terrorism has been abandoned, Swedish security service Säpo confirmed on Tuesday.

So there never really was a threat from these people.
The police was just jumping at shadows, after someone whispered spooky words in their ears.

On Thursday, prosecutor Björn Ericson at the Swedish National Police Crimes Unit (Riksenheten för polismål) opened a preliminary investigation into possible professional misconduct in connection with the case.

I really, really do hope we get to know what started all this.

Maybe your cops were bored. Happens over here all the time.

I really hope so. The alternative I don't like to hear is my police dancing to the pipe of another nation's secret police's tune. (Especially nations like Iran, North Korea, Israel, or USA)
