Dear Sir,

RE: KILLING OF OLOF PALME

When the Investigation Unit of the TRC began its work, it became aware of allegations made by during his trial in 1996 about the killing of the Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme in 1986.

Senior Superintendent Jan-Åke Kjellberg was seconded by Sweden to the TRC to form part of the International component of our team.

He was also specifically requested to look into these allegations and the South African link to this killing and other inuxders that had taken place in Europe at the time.

Later, a Swedish delegation visited South Africa in 1996, met with the Minister of Justice, a team from the TRC led by the Chairperson and the South African Police.

Both the Minister and the Chair undertook that they would facilitate any enquiry by the Swedish into this matter.

In particular, it was agreed by the Chairperson and the head of the IU unit that Jan-Åke Kjellberg would be tasked with taking this matter further within the TRC structures as a TRC investigator.

Whilst the delegation were here, they met with and interviewed him.

allegations referred

which led the Swedes and the TRC investigator to approaching him with a view of discussing the allegations. He refused to cooperate with both the Swedes and the TRC investigative unit when they approached him. It has therefore not been possible to finally conclude the investigation. The death of Olof Palme and the ancillary issues that have come to light are matters that will eventually be handed over to your office.
