In a controversial case in Gothenburg, four men and a woman have been sentenced for assault and robbery.
The group, known as 'pedophile hunters,' lured men under the pretense of meeting a 14-year-old girl.
Once the men arrived, they were attacked, filmed, and the footage was shared on social media.
The court's decision highlights the legal boundaries of vigilante justice, emphasizing that taking the law into one's own hands can lead to severe consequences.
This case has sparked a debate on the ethics and legality of such actions, as well as the role of social media in public shaming.
