Algerian Migrant in Swedish break into ex-girlfriend’s home with a knife

Algerian individual, known for an extensive criminal record, was previously ordered for deportation; however, this directive was not executed.

In Orrefors, Sweden, a 26-year-old Algerian migrant named Mohammed Amana was captured on video using a ladder to access an apartment balcony, armed with a kitchen knife. The incident, reported by Samnytt, stemmed from his anger over a breakup with his ex-girlfriend, who was staying at the apartment. Amana smashed the balcony door and stabbed a friend of his ex-girlfriend, shouting threats during the attack.

In August 2023, Amana received a two-year prison sentence, followed by a deportation order and a ban from returning to Sweden for at least ten years. Despite previous criminal activities and a prior deportation sentence, his removal from Sweden had not been executed, reflecting broader issues in the country with enforcing deportations.

The incident sparked discussions on social media, with figures like James Lindsay and Jordan Peterson commenting on the lack of immediate self-defense measures available to the residents. This event also highlights a growing interest in self-defense among Swedes, with a recent survey indicating that about 20% would feel safer with the legal right to own firearms for protection, a significant shift in public sentiment for Sweden.

This trend isn’t isolated to Sweden; neighboring Finland has seen similar calls for expanded self-defense rights due to rising security concerns. The situation in Sweden, often cited in these discussions, includes a notable increase in crime linked to migration, particularly after the 2015 migrant crisis when Sweden accepted a high number of asylum seekers relative to its population.

Official reports and statements from law enforcement, such as those from Greater Gothenburg police commissioner Erik Nord, have acknowledged the disproportionate involvement of migrants in serious crimes, including gang-related activities and sexual offenses. This acknowledgment has fueled debates on immigration policy, crime, and public safety in Sweden, reflecting a complex societal challenge.
