He has also become well acquainted with TV personality Alice Bah. He was also able to reconcile with the alderman Fries that NSF had a far-reaching conflict. They played golf together, among other things. After the defection went H\u00f6gstr\u00f6m with the Social Democrats but then left the party and joined the Conservatives. H\u00f6gstr\u00f6m was later criticized for being together with the Board of Exit in Motala, acquired a gym with a value of 25 000 crowns and a rowboat with a value of 39 000 kronor. Rowing boat was taken over later by H\u00f6gstr\u00f6m yourself when Exit went bankrupt. H\u00f6gstr\u00f6m was charged 2007 for receiving stolen goods after he tried to sell stolen goods.

The context in which the murder took place, was that Bj\u00f6rn acted openly and consequently against racism and Nazism at his workplace.<\/p>\n<p>One of the Nazis who participated in the killing of Bj\u00f6rn S\u00f6derberg was Hampus Hellekant, notorious in surveying leftist activists, journalists and others that he perceived as his opponents. Since his release from prison he has changed his name and, according to himself also his politics. But, as the Research Group reveals in this weeks\u2019 issue of <em>Arbetaren<\/em>, he has never stopped his activities, he has never stopped his monitoring.<\/p>\n<p>The results of which, as we\u2019ve seen, can be severe.<\/p>\n<p>Last December a Syndicalist couple and their two year old daughter were the victims of a Nazi arson in a suburb of Stockholm. The family escaped the flames by climbing down the balcony to the floor underneath. Some months earlier Hampus Hellekant had published pictures and addresses of the couple on a Nazi web page, displaying them as antifascists.<\/p>\n<p>We are experiencing an increasing level of Nazi violence very similar to the situation of the nineties. The social setting of today, with a financial crisis, increased marginalization and bigger divides between classes and a growing sense of insecurity among people is also very similar to then.<\/p>\n<p>But the challenge we as antifascist activists face, lies in finding effective means of resistance.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/anarkisterna.com\/blog\/2009\/10\/11\/ten-years-later-remember-bjorn-soderberg\/\">Read on and please spread and repost the article<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; We are always many more than the fascists are ever going to be!<br \/>\n&#8211; We are stronger than they will ever be!<br \/>\n&#8211; We will never forget Bj\u00f6rn S\u00f6derberg!<\/p>\n<p>In Solidarity,<br \/>\nthe Embryo collective<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>See also<\/em> : <a href=\"http:\/\/slackbastard.anarchobase.com\/?p=1507\">Arson against Swedish social centre Cyklopen<\/a> (December 1, 2008) | <a href=\"http:\/\/slackbastard.anarchobase.com\/?p=1512\">OMG!Violence is real!LOL!
