today, swedish newspaper dagens nyheter reports about a 33 year old man who was convicted of violating pul (a law on personal data and, e.g., the internet) and slander for publishing information about two men convicted for raping his wife. the news is to be found here. (in swedish).

now, i won't say much about violating pul, as strange as that law might be. but i wonder, wonder, wonder how the f*ck the man could be convicted of slander of the two men, themselves convicted for a very, very serious crime? if one of your near and dear is the victim of a crime, for which the perpetrators are convicted, are you not allowed to talk about it? i'd really like to see the full text from the court about the sentence the 33 year old recieved.

according to dagens nyheter, one of the rapists claimed, in court, that him being exposed on the internet by the 33 year old, was worse than the actual prison sentence itself. i'm not sure that says something about swedish courts, or what? as far as i'm concerned, people who commit crimes of that magnitude, ruining other peoples lifes, have absolutely no say at all.

pop, kneecaps. pop.
