Amount of damages awarded

Sources disagree on the amount of damages awarded in the bullying case.

aftonbladet.se

"Campus Manilla has been ordered to pay 180,000 kronor in damages to a student who was subjected to bullying."

expressen.se

"Source does not mention the bullying case or any damages related to it."

Why this matters: Source 192712 states that Campus Manilla was ordered to pay 180,000 kronor in damages, while Source 192729 does not mention this case at all, focusing instead on a different incident involving Micke Leijnegard. This discrepancy is significant as it affects the understanding of the bullying case's outcome.
