- I don't think they take sufficient account of how it affects a 15-year-old being detained in this way, says Rebecca Vinsa Mueller, the 15-year-old's lawyer.
Isolated during the day
The 15-year-old sits in isolation for most of the days.
The district court has given him permission for so-called co-incarceration, which is socializing with another inmate for shorter periods.
However, it is under the condition that the other inmate is also a minor, which is not the case in the 15-year-old's custody.
Under the Detention Act, minors also have the right to stay with staff for at least four hours every day.
Something which, according to the lawyer, is not complied with.
- It is usually two hours per day that he spends time with the staff.
His parents get to visit once a week and we lawyers are there twice a week for shorter visits.
The rest of the time he is alone in his cell, says Rebecca Vinsa Mueller.
No contact with school despite compulsory schooling
Unlike the other two detained for the murder in Sätra, the 15-year-old attends primary school and therefore has compulsory schooling.
- They have offered a teacher remotely via telephone and this has happened on one occasion.
Since then, they haven't heard back, says Rebecca Vinsa Mueller.
