Police searched at least two addresses in Borlänge on Tuesday morning as part of an investigation into suspected election fraud, SVT reports, citing Expressen.

Plainclothes officers reportedly raided two apartments in the early hours, in the Tjärna ängar and Jakobsgården neighbourhoods. Expressen reported that police left in unmarked vehicles belonging to the National Operations Department.

Prosecutor Oskar Edvardsson of the National Unit Against Corruption told Expressen he had no comment. Sophia Jiglind, a spokesperson for police in the Bergslagen region, told SVT she had no information and referred questions to the prosecutor.
