Killing of Alexandra Mezher

[5] A preliminary investigation on occupational safety and health violations was started in March 2016[4] but dropped in April 2017.

[7] Police refrained from releasing information about the attacker's identity for about three days, after which they stated that he had identified himself on arrival in Sweden as Youssaf Khaliif Nuur, a migrant from Somalia who claimed to be 15-years-old.

[12] Thomas Westin, station chief with the Stockholm City Police, called the killing "a high-profile crime.

"[13] The victim, Lebanon-born 22-year-old Alexandra Mezher, worked at the center in the months prior to the attack out of a desire to "do good", according to one of her cousins.

[17] The attack raised concerns about overcrowded conditions in Sweden's asylum centers,[18] the possibility of adult migrants taking advantage of Swedish law to fraudulently register as minors.

He was sentenced to psychiatric care, ordered to pay SEK 300,000 in compensation to Mezher's family, and, if discharged, he will also be deported and forbidden from returning to Sweden until 2026.
