In a recent incident in Sweden, a diplomat has been arrested under suspicion of espionage linked to activities in Stockholm during early May 2023. The Swedish Security Service (Sapo) confirmed the arrest and is conducting an investigation, with details remaining sparse. The suspect has a court-appointed lawyer as part of the legal process. This case is part of a broader trend of espionage-related incidents in Sweden, highlighted by previous high-profile cases involving intelligence officers and other individuals accused of spying for foreign powers.
A number of measures have been taken as part of the Swedish Security Service's preliminary investigation, among other things a person has been arrested suspected of espionage.
This is of course a serious suspicion. The investigation will now follow its course and I can't prejudge it.
