Leaders of the far-right http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=2371 live under constant threat of violence, according to a report from the Swedish security service Säpo.
Säpo reports that it receives an average of 4.5 reports per month of cases of threats made to Sweden’s district and county councillors.
The threats are systematic, often involve violence, and come from http://www.wvwnews.net/story.php?id=2179 groups across Sweden.
Media exposure and engagement in controversial issues often increase the incidence of threats, Säpo reports.”This is a democratic problem as it happens that politicians leave their posts as a result of having received threats,” said Säpo analyst Johan Olsson to news agency TT.
