Fredrik Laurin

In 2014, Fredrik Laurin took over as head of the investigative team at Swedish Radio, SR Ekot,[4] but was 1,5 years later headhunted back to SVT as Special Projects Editor.

When DR in 2021 disclosed that NSA spied on Swedish politicians and defence industry from their base in Amager, Copenhagen they reached out and Laurin and SVT joined in.

Swedish defence minister Peter Hultqvist awkwardly denounced the intrusion in an interview with SVT's Agenda [11] In November 2019, incredulous statements on Chinese camps in Xinjiang on hidden camera abouth Uighurs "being illiterate" exposed the moral standing of senior management at Huawei Sweden.

[17] "Trojkan" also uncovered in several reports for SVT in 2012 how the daughter of Uzbek dictator Islam Karimov, Gulnara Karimova, was bribed by the Swedish Telecom giant Telia Sonera.

Gulnara Karimova was subsequently jailed after admitting to bribery the company paid one of the highest fines ever in history to the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

In 2015, Telia Sonera declared that it was selling all its assets in "Eurasia"; and the loss to the biggest owner – the Swedish state – was estimated at 20 BN SEK Dagens Industri.

In spite of both Swedish and French military investigations, Colonel Christophe Rastouil was never charged and instead made head of the covert action division (2004–2007) of the DGSE.

The two men, Ahmed Agiza and Muhammed Al Zery, were taken from Bromma airport in Sweden in December 2001 to Egypt in a covert operation by US agents and handed over to Egyptian security services and were subsequently tortured.

[23] Fredrik Laurin and his colleagues also received several awards, among them a second "Stora Journalistpriset", for their 2007 report[24] on the bribery in the sale of the Swedish jet-fighter Gripen to the Czech Republic, Hungary and South Africa.
