Jailed: Dr Martin Trenneborg has been dubbed the ‘Swedish Fritzl’.
Stockholm’s district court said in the verdict the doctor had meticulously planned the kidnapping for a long time. “Furthermore, the doctor subjected the victim to serious risks by medicating her and by keeping her locked up in very unpleasant forms in the light and soundproof bunker,” it said in a statement.

The bunker, built over several years, featured electronic locks and had several rooms, a toilet and a small enclosed courtyard.
