A country that refuses to expel predators — even when they rape the most vulnerable — is not a nation. It is a crime scene.
In a verdict that shatters the very notion of justice, a 34-year-old Eritrean asylum seeker who raped a severely demented elderly woman in her care facility will not be deported from Sweden. The Eskilstuna District Court ruled that deporting the predator would be too “disproportionate” — because he has children and “connections to Sweden,” reports Samnytt.
Yes, you read that correctly.
Melsh Keleta, who committed one of the most grotesque betrayals of public trust imaginable, will serve a mere three and a half years in prison and then be allowed to remain in the country he so violently defiled.
He Raped a Helpless Woman — and Was Already Under Investigation
The rape occurred in September 2023, inside the Bolindergården dementia care home where Keleta was employed. According to staff protocols, only female caregivers were allowed to assist female patients with intimate care. But on that morning, Keleta insisted on showering one of the vulnerable female residents — and his newly hired female coworker, unfamiliar with the rules, complied.
Fifteen minutes later, she entered the room and saw a horror show:
“He has his fingers up her,” she told police.
The Syrian-born caregiver described Keleta as “moving his hand back and forth” inside the woman’s lower abdomen — as if he were masturbating, but on the patient. She immediately reported it, stating flatly:
“That’s not how we wash.”
But here’s the kicker: Keleta was already under an internal investigation for allegedly groping another patient’s breast. A written action plan barred him from being alone with female residents. Yet he ignored it — and no one enforced it.
“I Forgot” — His Excuse for Raping a Dementia Patient
When questioned, Keleta denied everything. Yet he admitted to being alone with the victim in direct violation of the action plan. When police asked why he disregarded the restrictions, he shrugged:
“I haven’t thought about it. I simply forgot about it.”
This is what passes for accountability in Sweden’s asylum-industrial complex.
Court: Rape? Yes. Deportation? Too Harsh.
Keleta was granted refugee status and permanent residence in 2014. Eleven years later, he raped a woman who was completely defenseless and dependent on his care. The court acknowledged this, writing that the victim was in a “particularly vulnerable situation” and had “no opportunity to defend herself.”
Still, the judges — including one from the Sweden Democrats (SD) — ruled that deportation would be “disproportionate.” Why? Because Keleta:
- Has three children (two born in Sweden).
- Maintains close contact with them.
- And his family is “dependent” on his support.
The court said these “connections” to Sweden outweighed even the rape of a mentally incapacitated woman.
Sweden Democrat Voted to Keep the Rapist — Then Shrugged
The three jurors in the case included:
- Veronica Ankarfjärd (Moderates)
- Lars Söderqvist (Social Democrats)
- Anne-Cathrine Kaup (Sweden Democrats)
Kaup, the SD judge, later admitted she believed Keleta should be expelled, but still voted against deportation.
“My personal opinion is that he should go out,” she told Samnytt.
“But it wouldn’t have mattered… so I didn’t reserve my opinion.”
This is judicial cowardice in its purest form — from the very party that claims to stand against mass migration and imported crime.
A Nation That Coddles Criminals and Abandons Victims
Today, the elderly victim lives in constant fear. She no longer allows staff to assist with bathing and pleads:
“Lock the door so he doesn’t come in.”
Meanwhile, the prosecutor, Emilia Barsk, says she might appeal the non-deportation ruling — but hasn’t even read the full verdict yet, as she just returned from vacation.
“I haven’t had time to read it,” she told Samnytt. “It is possible that I will complain in that regard.”
A demented woman was violated by a man who never should have been near her, and the court — including an SD judge — decided his presence in Sweden is more valuable than her dignity, safety, or sanity.
Sweden Has Become a Sanctuary for Rapists — Not for Victims
This case is not an aberration — it is the logical result of Sweden’s open-borders regime and weaponized “human rights” doctrine. The system now treats family ties and “refugee” paperwork as stronger than rape convictions.
This isn’t compassion. This is civilizational suicide.
Unless the people of Sweden demand mass deportations, judicial reform, and a government that values their own citizens over imported criminals, this will happen again. And again. And again.
