quick translation;
Swedish police filed a complaint against themselves after a sewdish TV show
revealed that police used manipulated video footage as evidence.
The TV show Uppdrag Granskning [http://www.svt.se/granskning/] compared its
own footage with the evidence used by the attorney general.
The comparison shows that images were swapped, sound was edited, and police
brutality cut out. Scenes where 19 year old Hannes Westberg gets shot in the
belly have been tampered with.
PS. The complaint is about copyrights and abuse of power. Jerry
