“16-year-old Danish boy detained in Sweden on suspicion of attempted murder”

A 16-year-old boy from Jönköping, Sweden, has been remanded in custody following a request from Danish authorities. This involves a Nordic arrest warrant, with the boy suspected of attempted homicide. During a closed court session, the young man opted not to comment on the charges and pleads not guilty. The arrest took place on Friday evening and the boy is from the southern part of Jönköping, as reported by P4 Jönköping, a local news outlet.

Copenhagen Police (Københavns Politi) have confirmed the origin of the arrest warrant but are not disclosing further details regarding the allegations.

This arrest is part of a growing trend concerning Swedish citizens involved in criminal activities in Denmark. Recently, a 21-year-old man was also detained for extradition, although the specific charges against him remain undisclosed.

In addition, two 24-year-old Swedish men were arrested after allegedly throwing a hand grenade into a kiosk in the Østerbro district of Copenhagen. Following their arrest at the Øresund Bridge, they were remanded in custody in Denmark until early September.

The recent surge in violent incidents has prompted Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard to strengthen border control measures between Denmark and Sweden. Additional police resources have been deployed on the Øresund trains, which connect the two countries, and law enforcement has been equipped with enhanced license plate recognition technology.
