According to the Swedish "Express" and the Russian Satellite News Agency and other media reported on the 10th, Sweden's first female prime minister Magdalena Anderson, who has just taken office, has recently been in trouble, because she hired an illegal immigrant without a residence permit in her villa to clean up.

Events begin with an alarm. A few days before Christmas last year, the Swedish police received an alert from the prime minister's home. Police then discovered that a cleaner in Anderson's home had mistakenly triggered the burglar alarm. While examining the house and everyone's documents, police accidentally discovered that the female cleaner in her 20s was from Nicaragua, who had been deported by the Swedish Immigration Service as early as spring 2020, but had been illegally stranded in Sweden. In the autumn of that year, the woman was also convicted of theft for burglary in a department store in Stockholm, but was sentenced to a suspended sentence for not having a previous conviction.

The scandal of illegal detainees being employed at the home of the Swedish prime minister sparked controversy for a time. "It's incredible," Swedish security expert Dick Malmlund criticized in an interview. Malmlund also pointed the finger at the Swedish Security Service, which is responsible for the prime minister's security around the clock.

Anderson was initially silent on the matter, but later responded that the cleaning company had misled her about the identity of the cleaner and that she had been "fooled" by the dishonest company. Opposition parties, however, remained critical of and said in his inaugural speech that he would do everything in his power to combat the crime of illegal immigration.
