The authorities watched the violence against the girl passively, but due to self-judgment, the victim quickly became an accused.
The 26-year-old Middle Eastern taxi driver was reported for raping a 14-year-old girl – and was later found hanged in a nature reserve. Now the girl, her boyfriend and three brothers are suspected of the murder, which according to the prosecutor “took on the character of an execution”, reports the Swedish newspaper Fria Tider.
The events began in February this year, when the then 15-year-old girl filed a complaint that the taxi driver raped her when she was 14.
On March 26, the man’s taxi was found abandoned, with the taxi clock running, in a parking lot in Enköping, north of Stockholm, in the Hjälstaviken nature reserve.
On April 1, the taxi driver was found hanged, 500 meters from the car. The police quickly turned their attention to the now accused youths.
The young people all deny the crime, except for the girl, who admitted that she tricked the man there.
According to the indictment, the girl lured the taxi driver to the scene of the murder on March 24 and kept him there until the four boys arrived. The boys had previously bought ropes, masks and clothes to use as aids to the murder.
According to the prosecution, the procedure was a “tortured death” for the taxi driver and the murder, according to the prosecutor, “had the nature of an execution”.
The day before the murder, the police found revenge plans on the taxi driver on the raped girl’s phone, where the girl mentioned that her boyfriend’s brothers were meeting the rapist.
“They will meet my rapist. HIHIHI,” she wrote.
The night before the murder, the girl sent a message to the taxi driver, asking him to bring vodka and meet her in a deserted place.
According to the indictment, the rapist was hanged the same day.
After the murder, the girl took a picture of her friend and later sent a message to one of her acquaintances that her rapist was dead.
