The Swedish judiciary on Thursday sentenced two Swedish citizens, aged 42 and 35, to prison terms after they were found guilty of spying for Russia in the midst of its invasion of Ukraine.
According to the court ruling, the two men, who are brothers, gained access to confidential information since one of them worked in the Armed Forces and had access to security data, as reported by Swedish Radio.
The older of the two has been sentenced to life imprisonment, while the other will have to spend nine years and ten months behind bars. The crimes they are charged with were committed between March 2011 and September 2021, according to court documents.
