Who Murdered Olof Palme?
Over 30 years after Sweden’s prime minister was gunned down on the streets of Stockholm, the mystery may finally be solved
By John R. Schindler • 11/16/16
Hard evidence for the Yugoslav theory hasn’t been forthcoming either, but it was given new life in 2011 when an infamous UDBA operative stated that his spy service was behind the Palme hit. In an interview with a German newsmagazine, Vinko Sindičić stated that UDBA took out the Swedish prime minister, whom Belgrade considered soft on terrorism, in order to pin it on troublesome Croatian émigrés. Sindičić added that the assassin, one Ivo D., was living in Croatia as of 2011, and the gun he used to murder Palme had been smuggled into Sweden from the United States.
This sounds like a far-fetched movie script, but Sindičić is an actual assassin who spent a decade in a British jail for a botched UDBA hit on a Croatian émigré in Scotland in 1988, while Western intelligence agencies have fingered Sindičić as the culprit in a dozen other UDBA assassinations across Europe in the 1970s and 1980s. His testimony was considered credible enough to assist in the recent successful prosecution of several former UDBA officials for a hit in Munich in 1983, the brutal murder of a Croatian dissident.
Moreover, the notion that UDBA would conduct a lethal operation in false-flag fashion to discredit its enemies abroad is entirely plausible—indeed, we know they did it more than once during their “special war” against Yugoslav radicals living outside the country.
We may soon get the bottom of this messy case, since Stockholm this week announced that it’s reopening the assassination inquiry. The matter is now in the hands of a tough prosecutor, Krister Peterson—who oddly has almost the exact same name as the man wrongly convicted of the murder—known for cracking down on organized crime. Relevantly, Petersson also prosecuted the 2003 murder of Anna Lindh, Sweden’s foreign minister, who was stabbed to death by a madman in a Stockholm department store.
Petersson has a daunting task before him. After more than three decades, numerous leads have gone cold, many witnesses are dead, to say nothing of the countless pages of case files which need careful reexamination. That said, this looks like the last chance to learn who murdered Olof Palme—and why. Having a chat with Vinko Sindičić looks like a good start to reopening the investigation.

Crazy coincidence: 2 S&W handguns "smuggled" in to Sweden the same way. How many could there be back in the 80's?
Sorry - I'm not a believer in coincidences! Not after "efterlevande" tells me mommy has it...
