๐Ÿซ Abuse

New, graphic details have emerged in the ongoing investigation into abuse at a Sigtuna school, with reports alleging that younger students were forced to perform sexual acts and lick the floor as punishment. This development follows earlier reports of arrests and investigations into hazing at elite schools. Politically, the country is in a state of flux following the September 13 general election. While Social Democratic leader Magdalena Andersson has been attempting to form a government after her center-left bloc secured a narrow majority, she has so far failed due to internal disagreements. Meanwhile, Ulf Kristersson continues to lead a caretaker government. New polls show shifts in voter sentiment, with the center-right alliance gaining a lead in one recent survey. Other domestic news includes the revelation of a security breach where an individual who failed a security check still accessed classified information near Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, and the collapse of regional government negotiations in Stockholm over a single sentence. Additionally, an elderly woman successfully defended herself against thieves by kicking one of them.
