A 62-year-old Swede suspected of exploiting his ‘vulnerable’ wife to have sex with some 120 men for money has been charged with aggravated pimping, several rapes, and assault.

The suspect, reportedly a former Hell’s Angel, was arrested in October after his wife reported him to police in northern Sweden. He has been held in custody since.

According to the charges, the man had for years made money from pressuring his wife ‘to perform and submit to sexual acts’.

The man was accused of creating online adverts, setting up meetings, and pressuring the woman to perform sexual acts online to attract clients.

He was also accused of using violence and threats, taking advantage of her drug addiction, as well as supplying her with drugs.

Sweden’s law on prostitution bans the buying of sex but not the selling; however, it is also illegal to facilitate the sale of sex.

In a plot twist that even the most jaded Scandinavian noir writer would envy, a 62-year-old former Hell’s Angel from northern Sweden has been charged with pimping, rape, and assault after allegedly turning his wife into a walking online marketplace for “vulnerable” clients, courtesy of his charming mix of drug supply, threats, and questionable life choices. This real-life thriller highlights the bureaucratic ballet of Sweden’s prostitution laws, which somehow manage to criminalize buying sex, but not selling it—unless, of course, your Tinder profile is run by the Hell’s Angel chapter president moonlighting as a digital pimp. Meanwhile, the media provides the perfect backdrop for this tragicomedy, proving once again that reality’s got a darker, ruder punchline than any sketch comedy writer could dream up.
