(Local) The Supreme Court, Sweden’s highest court of law, will not grant a second appeal by the father of an 11-year-old girl killed in the 2017 Stockholm terror attack.
The decision comes more than two years after Rakhmat Akilov, an Uzbek national, killed five and injured ten in a terrorist attack by driving a truck through crowds on Drottninggatan.
The father of the 11-year-old victim has been seeking compensation ever since, and had previously won 100,000 kronor ($10,300) in damages in the Swedish Court of Appeals.
But this fell short of the 300,000 kronor he was demanding for mental suffering as well as violation (kränkning as defined in Swedish law).
