Secret e-mail shows: She blew the whistle on the SD harassment – Expressen

The Sweden Democrats’ internal safety to stop the women to talk openly about sexual harassment in the party evokes strong reactions.

Express can now reveal how a party big shots – which itself is mentioned in the report – sounded the alarm about the treatment of the sextrakasserade SD women.

“they’ll give a damn that shaming, blaming and women who stepped forward to appear as perpetrators” , writes MP Hanna Wigh in an internal e-mails about the security department.

Expressen revealed on Friday the Sweden Democrats’ secret safety which women who testified about sexual harassment from male party colleagues, dismissed the review as “drunk “,” sick “and” clingy “. The goal of the report was to “get out of the writings” of sexual harassment.

The largest space was dedicated to the SDU woman Emma Sandkvist who was 19 when she reported to the police a senior official in the Party of rape and sexual harassment. The report describes the security department her alleged boyfriend exchanges her “immoral living.” They point out her drunk, for having “no credibility” and for being a “security risk for the party’s internal security”.

Another of the women who appear in the report is MP Hanna Wigh.

Wigh, who until last fall was in the party, was one of the SD women summer of 2013 went out openly and shared their experience as an employee within the party. She described how when a male senior official in the party organization through phone calls, comments and text messages expressed themselves sexually to her. These experiences contributed to her which had left his job as national ombudsman for the party.

In connection with the attention said Wigh that she received support from sections of the party leadership when she chose to raise the alarm.

But in parallel were also going on the party’s security department’s work.

wrote that she had taken offense at

Hanna Wigh responded directly to the safety department’s handling of the senior executive, she and other women in the party told you about. In an email to the then party secretary Björn Söder wrote Wigh she took offense at when the party’s security chief Bengt Malmberg went out and told about the details of the allegations of the party’s internal online forums SD Net and, according Wigh, “let insinuate that the leak” in the case, Wigh or other SD-employed woman.

Wigh perceived it directly to the security department felt that the charges against SD officer was a “conspiracy of malevolent women” and that the security department’s task was to “discredit us who come forward”.

She also told me that other women contacted her after they had been subjected to “pressure” from the security manager Bengt Malmberg:

“I am sincerely upset and annoyed that women who stepped forward feeling bad and calling crying to me after unpleasant hearings of safety and insinuations that they hand over power, they have not done what they have been able to clearly explain to NN (the sextrakasserianklagade SD official name, editor’s note) that his behavior is not desirable. “

Wigh added:

“It is according to me the exact same argument that is used in most sexmål crime to discredit and shame coat the victims.”

“No desire to have to move on”

Wigh, who then testified that she suffered one of the sextrakasserianklagade SD officials also wrote that she would have preferred to put all this behind to:

“I have no desire to have to proceed with this matter outside the party but I distrust the safety intentions on this matter and it is intended that these people should’utreda’ what occurred with their obvious partisan stance, I feel safer with letting go on to the police and let it be investigated where impartially. “

Hanna Wigh now says to Expressen about what she remembers of the security department’s actions after she chose to talk about sexual harassment:

– Internal started to be written on the forums, where above all security chief once again expressed about us women and wanted to say that these men have been victims of some kind of conspiracy. I was contacted by women who have themselves been victims of these men, and who called me and cried.

What reactions do you think you face when you now go out and talk about this again?

– I have noticed that when you address the problems that exist within the party, you become the victim of a rather huge hatstorm, especially on the Internet and social media. I have become very applied in many places, the parliamentary comrades Facebook Pages so they mock me because of that I address the problems that exist in the party.

– The state should ask themselves what kind of party we want have, it is a party that is sweeping things under the carpet, or a party that actually open and transparent where they realize that they committed mistakes but we handle them. I think that the voters would have a better understanding of it than to continue on this more corrupt way that everything should hyschas and silenced.



“Nothing I want to acknowledge in any way”

Wigh has also received read the internal sextrakasserirapport, which Expressen revealed on Friday, where her female comrades dismissed as “drunk”, “sick” and to have an “immoral living” when they allegedly changed boyfriends:

– the women that this reflects – it is a VICE SQUAD who wrote this report.

– it’s very disturbing and above all the women that it expresses absolutely nothing I want acknowledge in any way or that I feel comfortable with to represent in and with my involvement with the Sweden Democrats, says Wigh.

When Expressen get the then security manager Bengt Malmberg, who works remain within the party organization, so he puts on the handset directly. In an email to Expressen writes: “I make no comments now or in future.”

The Party Secretary Richard Jomshof has Expressen said that he has ordered the report to be “destroyed”. Moreover, there is an organizational change and a job that, according Jomshof, is to “ensure that we have clear procedures that all officials know it.”
