chris4gillian 1,832 Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) Full translation; Antonio Lindbäck had been charged in his absence and was arrested yesterday when the game was over. He has now been transferred to the police in Falun.He is reasonably suspected of child rape, the prosecutor confirmed the P4 Örebro.Indians coach Daniel Dalle-Andersson Bäckström is saddened by the news.- It is sad news you can and we'll have to wait and see a little more information that comes during the day, perhaps. I was told when I came out of the Stewards meeting that he was arrested. I did not know what it was about.It've blown around Antonio Lindbäck before, he has among other things been in prison for DUI?- Yes, there has been much around him and we've been working pretty hard from the club's side, and several who have worked with him to keep him fit and he has been training a lot and get away from that and really take care Edited June 1, 2016 by chris4gillian Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghostwalker 1,859 Posted June 1, 2016 I made a comment here: http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=81726&do=findComment&comment=2790380 The crime that he is suspected of is supposed to have happened in February in Dalarna province. The police complaint was filed "during the spring". No other information is available and will likely not be available until the prosecutor have decided if she will charge him with a crime in the court. http://na.se/sporten/speedway/1.3927452-aklagaren-darfor-greps-lindback Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted June 1, 2016 No point in speculating. Innocent until proven guilty. I would be careful what anyone writes as even though it is not a UK accusation, there could be legal implications. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would be careful what anyone writes as even though it is not a UK accusation, there could be legal implications. Of course but so far the information posted is only info that have been confirmed by the prosecutor. Also for the record, the age of consent in Sweden is 15.

He's not been arrested for underage consensual sex...he's been arrested for suspected Rape. That's a whole different scenario. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Stadia 1,071 Posted June 1, 2016 He's not been arrested for underage consensual sex...he's been arrested for suspected Rape. That's a whole different scenario. In this country, aren't they both treated the same? Might be different in Sweden? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) In the UK you cannot have legal consensual sex with an under 16 year old. It is automatically rape as the system deems the underage person not capable of making the decision. Edited June 1, 2016 by Steve Shovlar 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCB 0 Posted June 1, 2016 He's not been arrested for underage consensual sex...he's been arrested for suspected Rape. That's a whole different scenario. Not having a dig but this is why we shouldn't be commenting. It's too easy for the "facts" to be lost in translation. In the UK if I was to sleep with someone on their 16th birhtday it's OK, if I sleep with them the night before they turn 16 it's "statutory rape" which would make it look like I was a rapist but 24 hours later just a bit of a weirdo. Lets just wait and see what he is charge with, if anything and then I'm sure one of the Swedish posters will explain what that means. In the mean time I hope that this ends up being something and nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is automatically rape as the system deems the underage person not capable of making the decision. It's the same in Sweden. Sex with an under 15-year-old is charged as rape. (Also it can be charged as rape if it is someone aged 15-17 and the other person is in a "position of trust"). Edited June 1, 2016 by John Leslie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gresham 928 Posted June 1, 2016 Calm down. it is possible just a translation error from my part. Apologies if you misinterpreted my comment...I was only pointing out what was written in that article. Plus in reply to SGB...no speculation regarding what I think has been made...just posting what has been reported by Swedish media. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
