Explosives

The plan's guiding principle in crime fighting is that it is not enough to be tough on criminals but policy must be smarter, with sentences and measures carefully designed to actually lead to lower crime. To follow up the new coordination responsibility when bombings increase despite tightened legislation is precisely such an evaluation. The committee's reasons that work is already being prepared are not addressed by the plan.

• smart crime fightingdecisive»För att få ner brottsligheten går det inte bara att vara hård mot de kriminella, det gäller att vara smartare än de kriminella.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“To reduce crime, it is not enough to be tough on criminals, you have to be smarter than the criminals.”
• measures shall be evaluated»Straff och andra påföljder för brott behöver vara noggrant« (party programme ↗)“Sentences and other sanctions for crimes need to be carefully”
• research-based work against violence»Vi vill se ett genomgripande arbete mot våldsbrottslighet, som utgår« (party programme ↗)“We want to see comprehensive work against violent crime, which is based”
• limit access to weapons»Kriminaliteten behöver mötas både med ett fungerande och närvarande rättssystem som fler patrullerande poliser, arbete mot narkotikahandel, kamp mot tillgången till illegala skjutvapen och ett effektivt avhopparprogram« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Crime must be met both with a functioning and present legal system such as more patrolling police, work against drug trafficking, fight against access to illegal firearms and an effective exit programme”

The plan takes no explicit position on what the committee actually decided — often because the committee's reason was procedural. The stance is derived and fully cited, but it does not show the party broke a commitment.

The plan demands action against smuggling of weapons and explosives and vigorous combat of organized crime's violence capital. Careful monitoring of municipalities' licensing and supervision activities for explosive goods is a means for that control to work in practice. The plan's requirement for criminal policy based on evidence and effectiveness furthermore speaks to new rules being followed up and evaluated.

• action against weapon smugglingdecisive»Vi vill ta krafttag mot införsel av vapen och narkotika, bland annat genom stärkt gränskontroll.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“We want to take action against smuggling of weapons and drugs, among other things by strengthening border control.”
• combated organized crime»Kraftfullt bekämpande av organiserad kriminell verksamhet.« (party programme ↗)“Vigorous combat of organized criminal activity.”
• limited violence capital»För den organiserade brottsligheten har det varit nödvändigt att stärka sitt våldskapital.« (party programme ↗)“For organized crime, it has been necessary to strengthen its violence capital.”
• evidence and follow-up»Kriminalpolitik byggd på evidens, effektivitet och rättssäkerhet.« (party programme ↗)“Criminal policy based on evidence, effectiveness and rule of law.”

The election manifesto wants to stop gang financing through strengthened authority cooperation and that it shall be difficult to be criminal, and the party programme requires strengthened cooperation and information-sharing between authorities. Careful monitoring of the municipalities' licensing and supervision responsibility for explosives serves the same purpose of cutting off supply. The plan does not address the monitoring question, therefore low confidence.

• strengthened authority cooperationdecisive»stärka myndighetssamverkan så att myndigheterna kan slå till mot den organiserade brottslighetens företag från flera håll« (2022 manifesto ↗)“strengthen cooperation between authorities so that the authorities can strike at organised crime's businesses from multiple directions”
• information-sharing between authorities»informationsdelningen mellan myndigheter för att stoppa penningtvätt, välfärdsbrott och« (party programme ↗)“information-sharing between authorities to stop money laundering, welfare fraud and”
• effective crime prevention»förmåga att både bekämpa och förebygga brott« (party programme ↗)“ability to both combat and prevent crime”
• combat organised crime»se fler och bättre betalda poliser för att bekämpa den organiserade brottsligheten« (2022 manifesto ↗)“see more and better-paid police to combat organised crime”

The election manifesto establishes that society shall not cave in to gangs and wants an investigation into gang income and how it can be choked off, and that more everyday crimes shall be cleared up. The party programme makes it criminal policy's task to both prevent and deter crime. Careful monitoring of municipalities' licensing and supervisory work for explosives follows from these commitments.

• crackdown on gangsdecisive»Samhället ska inte vika sig för gängen.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Society shall not cave in to gangs.”
• choke off gang resources»Dessutom bör en utredning om gängens inkomster och hur dessa kan strypas genomföras.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Furthermore, an investigation should be conducted into gang income and how it can be choked off.”
• increased everyday safety»Tryggheten ska förbättras i hela landet och fler brott som drabbar folk i deras vardag ska klaras upp.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Security must be improved across the country and more everyday crimes affecting people should be cleared up.”
• prevent and deter»Kriminalpolitiken ska därför både förebygga och avskräcka från brott« (party programme ↗)“Criminal policy should therefore both prevent and deter crime”

The plan requires toughened penalties for including weapons offences, more tools for the police and a justice system whose capacity and efficiency is improved. Carefully following up municipalities' permit and supervision activities for explosives is an application of that line, particularly as the plan wants to legislate municipalities' crime prevention work. The counter-proposal's requirements thus lie in the plan's direction.

• toughened penalties for weapons offencesdecisive»Vi vill avskaffa dagens mängdrabatt på brott, slopa den närmast automatiska frigivningen från fängelsestraff och skärpa straffen för bland annat vapenbrott, våldtäkt och utpressning.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“We want to abolish today's volume discount on crime, eliminate the nearly automatic release from imprisonment and toughen penalties for including weapons offences, rape and extortion.”
• legislated municipal crime prevention»Kommuners brottsförebyggande arbete ska lagstadgas.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Municipalities' crime prevention work shall be legislated.”
• more tools against serious crime»Ge polisen fler verktyg och vapen.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Give police more tools and weapons.”
• more efficient justice system»Rättsväsendets förmåga och effektivitet behöver förbättras så att« (party programme ↗)“The justice system's capacity and efficiency must be improved so that”

The election manifesto's bearing commitment is that security shall be restored and criminality pushed back, with increased penalties for weapons crimes as an explicit example. The party programme moreover makes monitoring and quality control a central political task and requires that all crimes be effectively prosecuted. That communities' new permit and supervision responsibilities for explosives are carefully followed up therefore follows from the plan.

• increased penalties for weapons crimesdecisive»Skärp straffet för vapenbrott till lägst fem års fängelse.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Increase the penalty for weapons crime to at least five years' imprisonment.”
• monitoring as political task»kostnadsuppföljning och kvalitetskontroll är därför viktiga politiska uppgifter« (party programme ↗)“cost monitoring and quality control are therefore important political tasks”
• restored security»Tryggheten på gator och torg måste återupprättas, brottsförebyggande arbetet måste stärkas« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Security on streets and squares must be restored, crime prevention work must be strengthened”
• all criminality shall be prosecuted»Alla brott ska effektivt och utan undantag beivras« (party programme ↗)“All crime shall be effectively and without exception prosecuted”

The plan sets as an explicit goal to stop the bombings and demands that legislation and control be adapted so that gangs lose their tools, including through stronger powers for the customs service and tightened sentences for serious weapons crimes. Carefully following up municipalities' licensing and supervision of explosives serves the same goal and does not conflict with any commitment in the plan.

• stop the bombingsdecisive»Vi ska stoppa gängvåldet, skjutningarna och sprängningarna« (2022 manifesto ↗)“We must stop gang violence, shootings and bombings”
• adapted legislation against gangs»Gängen är Sveriges inhemska terrorister – och lagstiftningen måste anpassas därefter så att fler ställs till svars och försvinner från gatan.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Gangs are Sweden's domestic terrorists – and legislation must be adapted accordingly so that more are held accountable and disappear from the streets.”
• stop smuggling»• Stärka tullen med mer resurser och kraftfulla befogenheter för att stoppa stöldligor och vapensmugglare« (2022 manifesto ↗)“• Strengthen the customs service with more resources and powerful powers to stop theft rings and weapons smugglers”
• tightened weapons crime sentences»• Skärpa minimistraffen för grova vapenbrott från dagens 2 års fängelse till 6 års fängelse« (2022 manifesto ↗)“• Tighten minimum sentences for serious weapons crimes from today's 2 years imprisonment to 6 years imprisonment”

The plan states that Sweden shall not be a place for bombings and that no political measures are too far-reaching when gangs are to be pushed back. Carefully monitoring municipalities' permit and supervision activities for explosive materials aligns with this and with the plan's demands for clear results from every public investment. The plan also wants to give the judiciary tools against gangs.

• stop the bombingsdecisive»Sverige ska inte vara en plats för organiserade gäng, skjutningar och sprängdåd.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Sweden shall not be a place for organized gangs, shootings, and bombings.”
• uncompromising against gangs»Sverigedemokraterna anser att få politiska åtgärder är för långtgående när det kommer till att pressa tillbaka både de kriminella gängen och den kultur som gör att de får fäste.« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Sweden Democrats believe that few political measures are too far-reaching when it comes to pushing back both criminal gangs and the culture that allows them to gain a foothold.”
• tools against gang crime»Ge rättsväsendet resurser och verktyg för att bekämpa gängen« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Give the judiciary resources and tools to combat gangs”
• follow-up of public investments»Begära tydliga resultat för varje offentlig satsning« (2022 manifesto ↗)“Demand clear results for every public investment”
