PalmeAssassination< Petra Kelly | Enemy list | Al Gore > ![]() From "New Solidarity", June 18, 1975 by William Engdahl "In the late 1970s, I (Dennis King- note) requested the CIA's files on the LaRouche organization under the Freedom of Information Act. I eventually received, among other things, a translation of a 1975 article (click here ) from a Swedish newspaper detailing how the LaRouche organization's local branch had been stalking the country's prime minister, Olof Palme. The LaRouchians would continue to stalk him and to circulate massive quantities of hate literature targeting him for over a decade. In 1986, Palme was assassinated on a Stockholm street by a lone gunman. An unstable member of LaRouche's organization was the first suspect arrested--and anti-Palme literature was found in his apartment. He was later released for lack of evidence, although his story kept shifting and he never came up with a solid alibi. Another individual was tried and acquitted. The LaRouche associate, Viktor Gunnarsson, moved to North Carolina where he was murdered in 1993, supposedly as a result of his involvement in a love triangle. According to witness statements collected by an investigator working for the man convicted of Gunnarsson's murder, the Swede had bragged to American friends about having killed Palme. The Palme assassination has never been solved, but Gunnarsson remains near the top of the suspect list and was named as the assassin in a book by Borje Wingren, a former Swedish police inspector who worked the case and was blocked by his superiors from aggressively investigating Gunnarsson."
