The trial against the man accused of murdering Swedish Foreign Minister Anna Lindh will start on January 20, an article of the Swedish daily Dagens Nyheter reads. The newspaper cited Stockholm district court judge Goran Nilsson who said that he hoped that the prosecutor's documents would reach the court at the latest on January 16. Since the arrest in late September the suspect, Mijailo Mijailovic, has said he is innocent but police say they have strong evidence against him. No motive for the Lindh assassination in September, which shocked Sweden has been established. Lindh was attacked while out shopping in a Stockholm department store on September 10 by a man wielding a knife. She died the next morning of her wounds.
