Four Members of Nazi Group Aktivklubb Sverige Sentenced for Racially Motivated Assaults in Stockholm

Four young men affiliated with the Nazi martial arts group Aktivklubb Sverige have been sentenced to prison for a series of racially motivated assaults committed in central Stockholm in August 2025. The Stockholm District Court handed down sentences ranging from three to three and a half years after finding that the men attacked three individuals of foreign descent during a night out. The court designated the crimes as hate crimes, noting that the attackers shouted racist slurs and performed Nazi salutes during the assaults.

The convicted men are Oliver Sima Petrell (23), Olof Pantzar (21), Casper Englund (22), and Joey Greven (21). Among the victims was 42-year-old Mohammad Aluaudt Allah, who suffered a concussion and serious dental injuries when he was violently beaten unconscious. Another victim, aged 43, described persistent vision problems and daily headaches resulting from his injuries. The court also heard testimony regarding a 27-year-old victim assaulted on the subway, whom the attackers attempted to forcibly remove from the train to continue their assault.

While the men denied the charges, evidence including surveillance footage and eyewitness accounts revealed their brutal violence and hateful motives. At least two of the men were observed making Nazi salutes during the attacks. The court convicted one of the defendants of aggravated theft for taking a victim's cap and headphones but dismissed certain robbery charges for lack of evidence proving concerted action.

The men have been ordered to pay compensation to their victims. The sentences reflect judicial condemnation of racially motivated violence linked to extremist groups, amidst growing public concern about far-right extremism in Sweden. Aktivklubb Sverige, evolving from the breakup of the Nordic Resistance Movement in 2019, is known for its neo-Nazi ideology and combat sports activities.

This case shines a spotlight on hate crimes in Stockholm, emphasizing the ongoing challenges posed by extremist violence and its impact on vulnerable communities.
