In an update to the Oxie murder case, two 24-year-old women from Karlskrona have been remanded in custody on suspicion of aiding the murder of a man in his 20s and three attempted murders. They are accused of assisting a 12-year-old boy, the primary suspect in the December 12 shooting.
Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer has rejected lowering the age of criminal responsibility to 12 following the suspected murder of a 21-year-old man in Oxie near Malmö by a 12-year-old boy. He stresses a 'lower limit' exists and calls for stronger social services interventions.

Starting next year, children convicted of serious crimes in Sweden could be placed in prison, according to the Liberals. The party argues it offers better educational opportunities than regular school. The changes are criticized for being rushed through too quickly.
