25 September 2023 at 18:48 The mudslide is being investigated as an environmental crime The police have changed their investigation of the mudslide on the E6 to an environmental crime, the police in Sweden report in a press release. In the days before the landslide in Stenungsund, there were two explosions in the area. These are the reasons why the police have changed their tracks in the investigation, writes Göteborgs-Posten. The Swedish national seismic network believes that the explosions in the area were carried out on Wednesday and Thursday last week. The researchers are not sure where the explosions took place, but data suggests that the first came at a quarry two kilometers north of the landslide area. The other should have come just west of E6, near the landslide area. Previously, the incident was classified by the police as “publicly dangerous destruction”, according to Expressen. But now this has been changed to environmental crime.
