It was the summer of 2018 that the woman, who was then 18 years old, had made up her mind to meet an African man in his 40s. She went home and had sex with her husband. Afterwards, the African was reported to the police by the woman, who claimed that he had raped her.
The police went home and arrested the designated man, who also lost his job due to the rape accusation. However, the police investigator managed to clarify that the rape was fabricated, and the woman admitted in interrogation that her report was false.
The woman is therefore sentenced to probation with 80 hours of community service for false accusation.
Second time
This is not the first time the woman has falsely reported a man for rape. In the summer of 2017, when she was 17 years old, she claimed that another man in his 40s raped her. The investigation also showed at the time that she was lying, and for that she was sentenced last autumn to a suspended sentence and a 40-day fine.
The now 21-year-old woman must also pay damages to the two men she falsely accused of have raped her. Both men are awarded damages of SEK 37,600 each.
