According to the newspaper Nerikes Allehanda, the man – masked with a stocking over his head – managed to remove the socks directly from the women’s feet. One of the women was also relieved of her shoes and support braces.
Another disabled woman stated that the man seemed to “pant and shake with sexual excitement” as he tackled her footwear.
“But I just wanted to feel her artificial leg,” said the man in questioning. “It was nothing sexual.”
