Assassination of Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme solved

Featured Replies

For those who does not know, the Prime Minister of Sweden, Olof Palme, was fatally wounded by a single gunshot while walking home from a cinema with his wife Lisbet Palme on the central Stockholm street Sveavägen. No bodyguards were present due to his preference.

Police said that a taxi driver used his mobile radio to raise the alarm, and two girls in a nearby car tried to assist. He was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital at 00:06 CET on 1 March 1986. The attacker escaped eastwards on Tunnelgatan and then disappeared. 

 

It's only now, almost 34 years later, that the murder has been solved. The prosecutors annoucned today that Stig Engström, who committed suicide in 2000, was Palme's murderer.

 

This may not be much of news outside of Sweden, but I thought this is a worthy topic to bring up. Say what you want about his politics, this has been a wound on my country for a long time and I am glad to finally be able to see the events clear, and the murderer revealed. It has been something that has interested me since I was a small kid, since this sort of event was not something that had happened in Sweden before and on top of it - Gone unsolved for this long. I really hope that this is the correct solution and that the case is now closed.
