The police officers spoke in court about their experiences during the riots in the city of Örebro over Easter weekend, which saw 71 of the 135 police officers deployed during the rioting being injured as a result of the violence.
“I was really scared. I was absolutely convinced that I would be beaten to death if I were to fall or something like that,” one of the officers told the court, broadcaster SVT reports.
