Sweden: Swedish Students Harassed-School Rector Goes After Reporter

Hat tip Fria Tider


Below is an article from Fria Tider on a report by journalist Joakim Lamotte on school bullying in Sweden.  At the (exclusive) private English School in Västerås, Swedish children report being harassed and beaten by immigrant children from the Middle East and Africa simply because they are Swedish and represent a minority in the school. Furthermore, when Lamotte contacted the school principal, Maud Segerstedt, she hung up the phone and then sent him an email to the effect that she was going to report him to the press ombudsman and the press professional ethics board.

The below article is translated by Fousesquawk. The article contains a link with a video made by Lamotte which we are in the process of translating and will post when available.

Joakim Lamotte reported for his reporting on Swedish pupils in minority

Joakim Lamotte spoke to a girl who reported that she was bullied, beaten, and harassed because she was Swedish. Now the school's Center Party principal is reporting Lamotte to the media ombudsman and the presses' professional ethics board.

In Joakim Lamotte's reportage on Facebook, it is described how Swedish pupils at the English School in Västerås are harassed just for being Swedes.

The Swedish pupils at the school have ended up in the minority since a large number of pupils from the third world have applied.

Joakim Lamotte interviews the former student, Emelie, who reports that as a Swede, she was beaten, bullied, and isolated and that in the 7th year, she was forced to change to a school with more Swedish pupils. Those who bullied her come from Iraq, Syria, Kurdistan, and Africa.

"I was bullied because I didn't have a large family, I was bullied because I didn't speak their vernacular. I was pale and green-eyed. I was everything they weren't. I was isolated because I was Swedish. They said I was a Swedish pussy and called me things in their language that I didn't understand," says Emelie in the reportage.

It went on so long that Emelie was forced to spend all the time outside the classes in the school bathroom. She even sat there eating her lunch.

"We finally took Emelie out of the English School. Had we not done so, I don't know if she would have survived this," says Emelie's mother in the reportage.

According to Lamotte, he has heard many pupils from the school with similar reports about how they are bullied and harassed because they are Swedes.

But when Joakim Lamotte contacted the principal, Maud Segerstedt, who is active within the Center Party, she hung up. Then she emailed (him) and stated that she would report Lamotte to the media ombudsman and the press professional ethics board.

"This is completely absurd. A principal's job is to answer reporters' questions when it comes to misconduct in the school. But as usual, certain people in power do everything to shoot the messenger instead of solving the problem," writes Joakim Lamotte on Facebook.
