Samnytt has previously reported on the entire case involving Aldo Colliander, coach for Djurgårdens IF Boxing. After Djurgårdens IF suspended him for making death threats and took a public stand against hate and threats, Dagens ETC writer Frida Sundkvist is now requesting to leave the association. She is also returning her season tickets.
Sundkvist, herself a Djurgården supporter, reacted strongly when the club announced that it distances itself from all forms of hate and threats. In a post directed to Djurgården Football’s official X account, she wrote, among other things:
“This is the sickest tweet I have seen from you. Clearly disgusting behavior, YES. But why are you acting as enablers and spreading a far-right campaign in the middle of an election campaign? That you’re even risking letting a tiny party hijack this?”
When neither the board nor the office responded to her email — in which she claimed the club had been subject to a ‘far-right campaign’ — she decided to leave.
The background to the “far-right campaign”
The background is video clips where Colliander, among other things, says that one must “do an Olof Palme” to AFS leader Gustav Kasselstrand and that he is prepared to murder him with his bare hands.
In the same context, another person talks about “banging your girls” and “spreading our sperm in your daughters” in order to Islamize Sweden.
After Samnytt reported on the clips, Djurgårdens IF Boxing suspended Colliander. The football section made a public statement, saying it distances itself from any form of hate and threats.

Sundkvist, who previously worked at Expressen but was fired after leaking information to Dagens ETC, has described the club’s actions as giving in to a right-wing campaign.
She claims that this means Djurgården has become an enabler for “far-right” forces during the election campaign.
Among many Djurgården supporters, the reaction has been the opposite. Several have questioned in comment sections why it should be problematic for an association to distance itself from death threats and sexual statements about Swedish women and girls.
