Preliminary investigation in response to cable breaks
The Swedish Police Authority has launched a preliminary investigation in response to cable breaks in the Baltic Sea.
The case is being led by a prosecutor with the National Public Prosecution Department.
The Swedish Police Authority monitors, validates and evaluates new information on a continuous basis to determine whether we need to take action. The Swedish Police Authority has requested assistance from the Swedish Coast Guard and the Swedish Armed Forces to gather and share information about the situation at sea.
We cooperate with other concerned authorities, such as the Swedish Security Service. We have very good international cooperation.
The Swedish Police have no further comment at this time, but we urge the public to refer to verified information from authorities. Do not spread unconfirmed information.
