“The girls were sexually harassed. One of the cases has been classified as child rape,” said Peter Persson of the Örebo police to the TT news agency.
Persson said the boy facing the most serious charges is 13 years old. He said the alleged rape crime did not involve intercourse, adding that the boy had used his hands.
Although one of the boys is above the age of criminal responsibility, Persson said the case will most likely be handed over to social services.
The organizers of the football tournament, Örebro SK Ungdom, have said the police will decide on the appropriate course of action.
“This has been terribly upsetting, but there’s nothing more we can do,” Peter Johansson, the head of Örebro SK Ungdom told TT.
Moreover, Johansson explained that the incident took place on a free day when the boys had no games.
The annual tournament is being held for the 14th time.
“It’s a small tournament with the best boys' teams participating from a few elite clubs,” Johansson said.

To point out that there are more criminals in certain groups in soceity isn`t racist. It has nothing to do with race or skincolour. But these groups crimes should be discussed openly if one ever wants crime to drop. The ones pointed out in this case is not what you seem to think.

Different people have different norms. If a behaviour is as widespread in certain groups of people then it is hardly that they are poorly brought up. But rather that they are brought up to be something different than what people are brought up to be in swedish culture.
I believe that in some cultures its ok and even desirable to rape females of the neighbouring clan, assuming you can get away with it. It makes evolutionary sense. And we ARE noticing these cultural differences when such cultures set up colonies here in sweden.
I am not one for making policies. My aim is speaking truths. I believe one should be humble in all things. Thats what i reacted to in your post. Just because you and me might have a set of values doesnt mean that everyone will share those values. Nor does it mean that our values are "right". Nor does it mean that wha we perceive as "right" is universal. Right for me. Wrong for you. Maybe.

Silly grandstanding after you have had your argument exposed as frivolous and bigoted. Its pathetic.
