Swedish Police Officer in trouble after posting details of a police inquiry on his blog

A Stockholm police officer is in trouble after posting details of a police inquiry to his blog in a case that is getting a lot of attention in Sweden at the moment: an assult charge against Social Democrat Youth leader Anna Sjödin.

Police are currently investigating whether or not the police officer breached any laws with the post.

According to The Local: “Mats Vangstad, head of operations at Stockholm police, told the newspaper Metro that he has spoken to the policeman and that he will hand over the case to internal investigators. According to Aftonbladet, the policeman quoted colleagues who were on the scene after the row. He wrote of a policeman who said of Sjödin that ‘she was insanely drunk and being cocky with everyone’.”
