Former Politician Sentenced for Vandalism at National Museum
A former top politician has been convicted of vandalism after defacing the facade of the National Museum with the words “Hitler’s cock sucker.” The ex-politician, who has held high positions in Swedish and European politics, was arrested on suspicion of the act and later admitted to the crime.
The vandalism was discovered by security guards who alerted the police after spotting the politician through surveillance cameras. He was seen painting the message and splashing paint on the museum’s facade before attempting to flee the scene. The police were able to apprehend the man with paints and brushes in his possession, and he was found to be splashed with the same paint used on the museum.
During his arrest and subsequent questioning, the former politician made controversial statements, including referring to the Swedish state as ‘Hitler’s cock-sucker’ and alleging that Sweden served a dictatorship during World War II. He also claimed that someone had been monitoring his phone and emails for two decades, expressing fears of his bank account being closed and explaining the large amount of cash found on him.
In addition to defacing the National Museum, the man also admitted to vandalizing the facade of Eric Ericsonhallen with the same message. The vandalism at both locations led to the politician being sentenced for vandalism and minor vandalism. He has been given a suspended sentence and ordered to pay damages of SEK 5,000 for the clean-up costs incurred by the museum and the church.
The verdict was delivered after the former politician had spent two days in custody following his arrest. Aftonbladet is currently seeking to contact the politician for further comments on his actions.
