* 28 February at 11:00 AM: Gathering at Mynttorget. This is 40 years to the day since the assassination of Olof Palme. We will gather at Mynttorget in Stockholm. Please join us as we direct our appeal to the nation’s decision-makers. Please find enclosed the posters of this event.

Our Message is Reaching the Top

In the week leading up to 28 February, the petition will be sent to the Speakers of the Riksdag, the Chairs and Deputy Chairs of the Justice and Constitution Committees, as well as the Minister for Justice and the Prime Minister. On the 28th of February, the petition will be formally submitted to every Member of Parliament.

We are also in the process of submitting an opinion piece for publication, co-signed by a broad group of police investigators, academics, journalists, and authors.

Continued Efforts and Support

Whilst 28 February marks the end of the project's first phase, our work will not stop there. We will persist until a Truth Commission has been officially established. You can follow the project's progress in full at palmemordet40.se.
