Sweden: A Statistical Breakdown on Immigration and Crime

Hat tip Kronans Martell for video translation. Editing by Gates of Vienna and Sub-titles by Vlad Tepes.


Our Swedish colleague, Kronans Martell, has translated a speech in Copenhagen on 19 September 2020 by Swedish writer Gunnar Sandelin before the Free Speech Society (below). His topic deals with the relationship between immigration and crime in Sweden.

In conjunction with that speech, we have a translated article from Det Goda Samhället (Good Society) Foundation, which deals with the study mentioned in Sandolin's speech. (Translation by Fousesquawk)

Report on immigration and crime

Det Goda Samhället (Good Society) Foundation has updated the reports of the Crime Prevention Council (Brå) from 1996-2005 on immigration crime. The new report is entitled, "Immigration and crime-a 30-year perspective."

Patrik Engellau, the report's author, believes that several interesting conclusions can be drawn from the material in the study. Three of the most important are the following:

- For the first time, more crimes are being committed-in absolute numbers- by persons with a foreign background than by people with Swedish origin.

- The most crime-burdened population-sub-group are those born domestically from two foreign-born parents. This group's weight is higher than the foreign-born and increases over time.

- An earlier, not particularly noticed group are those not registered, for example, members of foreign theft (gangs), so-called undocumented migrants, EU-migrants, and tourists. This group has, in recent decades, greatly increased its share of the total number of crimes committed from 3% to 13%.
