Unsolved deaths in Sweden

Four-year-old Kevin Hjalmarsson was found dead in Arvika on 16 August 1998. Two brothers, then five and seven years old, were accused of murdering him and were claimed to have confessed. They were never convicted of a crime and from a judicial point of view are innocent.

On 29 January 2025, Salwan Momika, an Assyrian from Iraq residing in Sweden known for controversial Quran burnings that sparked international diplomatic tensions, was fatally shot in Södertälje, Sweden. The shooting and subsequent police response occurred during a TikTok livestream, and occurred hours before a scheduled court verdict regarding his anti-Islamic demonstrations was to be announced.
