On September 6, 2019, a shocking incident occurred in Stockholm, Sweden, that has left many wondering about its connection to a high-profile case.

Henrik Olsson Lilja, the lawyer who initially represented A$AP Rocky in his assault trial, was shot in the head and chest as he left his apartment.

According to reports, the gunman jumped into a waiting SUV and fled the scene after the shooting.

Despite his injuries, Olsson Lilja was able to call the police, but the motive behind the attack remains unclear.

It is worth noting that Olsson Lilja was replaced by other attorneys before the trial started in August, and he had disputed claims of inhumane conditions while A$AP Rocky was jailed in Sweden.
