Sweden



A Swedish court sentenced a rejected asylum seeker to life in prison for a deadly attack with a beer truck that killed five people and injured nearly a dozen in Stockholm last year.

Rakhmat Akilov, an Uzbek supporter of the Islamic State, was found guilty of terrorism and murder. He had steered the hijacked truck into a crowd of shoppers after going underground to avoid deportation. Above, a memorial for the victims in April 2017.
