Key details
In the ongoing legal case following the April 3 knife attack on a bus in Eslöv, a 15-year-old girl is at the center of a controversial trial. The girl attacked another teenager on the bus, leading to severe injuries for the victim, who required hospitalization. Reports indicate that the two girls were previously acquainted.
In total, four additional individuals have been charged in connection with the attack: a 21-year-old man accused of incitement to attempted murder, and three teenage boys charged as accomplices. One of the boys is particularly notable for allegedly providing the knife and instructing the young girl on its use, while another boy is said to have filmed the incident, and the third allegedly acted as backup. It has been suggested that the 21-year-old felt insulted by the victim, potentially motivating the act. All defendants have denied their charges, complicating the proceedings further as the court examines the evidence against them.
