Prosecutor Rasmus Oman confirmed to AFP that an investigation had been opened into the murder of 38-year-old Salwan Momika.

"We're in the very early stages...there's a lot of information gathering. Five people have been detained suspected of involvement in the crime," he said. A Stockholm court had been due to rule on Thursday whether Momika, a Christian Iraqi, was guilty of inciting ethnic hatred but said it had postponed its ruling until February 3 as a result of his death.
