The new proposal was presented in an investigation into provocative actions that was submitted to the Minister of Justice on Monday.

– We don’t tell you how to present it, we create the legal framework, says the government’s special investigator Stefan Johansson at a press conference.

The goal is, among other things, to be able to penetrate pedophile networks and stop planned abuse.

– It may be a question of sharing material that gives you access to forums that are currently in practice closed to the police, says Minister of Justice Gunnar Strömmer (Moderate).

The proposal will be submitted for consultation, but is already welcomed by Gunnar Strömmer.

– We know that sexual crimes against children are very difficult to investigate. There are rarely witnesses, young children may have difficulty describing what happened, contacts are made digitally via anonymized accounts. The crime can move to forums that the police today have difficulty accessing, he says.

The investigation also proposes that the police be given greater leeway to prosecute incitement to commit other types of crime.

For example, the police should be able to pose as a drug buyer to obtain evidence of more serious types of drug crimes.
