Schoolgirl’s online murder threat
p2pnet.net news:- A 15-year-old Swedish girl has been charged with threatening to kill a schoolmate while they were chatting online.
The girl, from Arlöv in the south, admitted she’d made the threat, but said she had no intention of carrying it out, says The Local, quoting Sydsvenskan and going on:
“According to police, the victim of the threat has long been bullied and harassed by a number of other pupils.”
Aftonbladet reports the victim of the bullying stopped going to school after the 15-year-old threatened to kill her, says the story, adding:
“Her absence from school then became the cause of further internet harassment.
“Because of her young age, the girl is likely to be fined rather than face the maximum one-year prison sentence for threats of this nature.”
