Two 15-year-olds have been arrested in the Stockholm area, suspected of preparing to carry out an explosion. The arrests occurred during the night after police received a tip-off from a concerned parent. This parent informed authorities that their daughter had initially agreed to carry out the bombing but had regretted her decision. The girl reportedly felt pressured to execute the plan which led to her eventual arrest by the police.

Subsequently, law enforcement found a hand grenade in a bag located in a storage facility in southern Stockholm, believed to belong to the girl. This discovery led to the apprehension of a 15-year-old boy who is also suspected of being involved in the planning of the bombing. The situation raises serious concerns about youth involvement in violence and extremism, particularly in light of the complications surrounding the LVU scandal in Huddinge, which is believed to be connected to the motive behind these incidents.

The implications of these arrests are significant, as they highlight not only the issues of youth radicalization and violence in Sweden but also the potential failures in the system designed to protect vulnerable children. With the pressure on young teenagers to engage in dangerous activities, there is a pressing need for interventions that can both address immediate threats and prevent future incidents of this nature.
