(Jerusalem Post) A Copenhagen City Court ruled that a 17-year-old suspect, believed to have attacked Israeli embassies in both Denmark and Sweden, should be extradited, according to a Wednesday statement by Senior Prosecutor Cecilia Holmbom.
The teenager, a Swedish citizen, is suspected of detonating hand grenades near the Israeli embassy in Copenhagen and shooting at the Israeli embassy in Stockholm in October 2024. There were no casualties in either incident.
“I have requested that the young man be handed over from Denmark to Sweden for prosecution through a Nordic arrest warrant. The man is in custody in Denmark on suspicion of the bombing at the Israeli embassy in Copenhagen on October 2, 2024. Sweden and Denmark have had close cooperation for some time,” wrote Senior Prosecutor Cecilia Holmbom.
