Three men have been sentenced to life in prison for the murder that took place outside the mosque in Örebro on August 15, 2025. A 27-year-old man was shot and killed shortly after Friday prayers, and another man was wounded in the arm.
The shooting was carried out by a boy who was 16 at the time and who, according to the verdict, acted on behalf of a criminal network. The murder was carefully planned and is linked to a long-standing gang conflict in Örebro. Another man was sentenced to life in prison for aiding and abetting murder, conspiracy to commit murder, and aggravated weapons offenses.
The 16-year-old shooter was sentenced to 9 years and 10 months in prison for murder and attempted murder. Five other people were convicted of aiding and abetting murder.
According to the verdict, this was a straightforward execution carried out in the midst of an ongoing gang conflict. Several of the convicted individuals have foreign backgrounds and are linked to criminal networks in the area.
The judgment was handed down on July 2, 2026, by the Örebro District Court.
No, they're all going out.
