Social service workers on the island of Gotland applied for &#8220;administered care&#8221; after the girl, in spite of threats, had escaped from the shelter where she was living and moved back with her family. The court stated that the investigation showed that the girl&#8217;s desire to return is rooted in her upbringing, which has taught her that the honor of the family is more important than her individual rights. She may also feel guilt, because she thinks she is dishonoring the family by not being with them. According to the court, the girl&#8217;s behavior should be considered socially disruptive under the definition of the LVU law, and therefore, she needs to be protected.<\/p>\n<p>August 14: Two men, 21 and 26 years of age, were\u00a0<a style=\"text-decoration: none; color: #da5724;\" href=\"https:\/\/polisen.se\/Aktuellt\/Nyheter\/Skane\/juli-sept\/Tre-man-haktade-for-valdshandelser-i-Malmo\/\">remanded<\/a>, suspected of two of the many recent hand grenade attacks in Malm\u00f6.

He underwent two surgeries at taxpayer expense, and considered himself entitled to financial aid for the cost of his medicine and several doctor&#8217;s visits.

Earlier, in August 2014, the Immigration Service had about 5,000 employees; in August 2015 that figure was 6,200. This means that the wage costs have increased by 50 million kronor (about $5.9 million) a month. In all, the Immigration Service&#8217;s staff now cost Swedish taxpayers 250 million kronor ($29.6 million USD) a month, or 3 billion kroner ($360 million) a year.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from skyrocketing costs, Alfsson questions why so many people of foreign descent find employment with the Immigration Service. He writes: &#8220;I can&#8217;t but wonder what kind of screening process the Immigration Service have in regard to the people they hire.

The reason is very simple \u2013 the Immigration Service has hired the activists. They are now officials at the authority!

The man was in his thirties and originally from Somalia, but lived in the immigrant-heavy area of Vivalla in \u00d6rebro. The man was apparently one of three who have repeatedly traveled to join ISIS, but were twice intercepted in Turkey and sent back to Sweden. The man is the fourth resident of \u00d6rebro who has died as an ISIS terrorist. The chairman of Afrikas Horn tells the local paper\u00a0<i>Nerikes Allehanda<\/i>\u00a0that &#8220;the family is in mourning.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>August 28: Ali Khoddami, once an asylum seeker to Sweden, was\u00a0<a style=\"text-decoration: none; color: #da5724;\" href=\"http:\/\/avpixlat.info\/2015\/08\/28\/ali-lurade-av-90-ariga-inga-lill-huset-och-hennes-livs-besparingar\/\">sentenced<\/a>\u00a0to prison for defrauding an elderly woman. Khoddami worked in home care services and tricked Inga Lill, a 90-year-old woman suffering from dementia, out of millions of kronor. By pretending to be the woman&#8217;s friend, Khoddami was able to take over her bank accounts and move into her house, along with his family. He used her savings of two million kronor (about $240,000 USD) for luxury items, as well as several cars. Khoddami also managed to persuade Lill to sign over her house &#8212; her childhood home built by her father &#8212; to him. The house is apparently worth five million kronor ($590,000 USD). It was only after Khoddami put Lill, who has no living relatives, in a nursing home that the fraud was uncovered. The District Court sentenced Khoddami to 2.5 years in prison and fined him 7 million kronor ($830,000) plus interest and damages.<\/p>\n<p>August 28: There were reports that people-smugglers have, over a short period of time,<a style=\"text-decoration: none; color: #da5724;\" href=\"http:\/\/avpixlat.info\/2015\/08\/28\/manniskosmugglare-dumpar-ensamkommande-i-goteborg\/\">dumped 100 asylum seekers<\/a>\u00a0in the Gothenburg area.
