A Perussuomalaset (PS)* MPS “was involved in an incident in Helsinki Friday night”, reports Helsingin Sanomat. PS MP Timo Vornanen is suspected of aggravated assault and carrying a firearm, according to Seiska.
Vornanen was partying with some PS MPs who have not been named except for MP Sanna Attikainen.
Vornanen is a former policeman.
The news comes at a very bad time for the PS. One of the arguments that the party has been internal security, which is a pretext to tighten immigration policy is security. The party isn’t very convincing if one of its MPs goes on the rampage in the city center of Helsinki. Finland just suffered a shooting three weeks ago at a Vantaa school when a twelve-year-old killed one of his classmates and injured two.
The PS justifies their harsh migration policy on national security. What happens when a PS MP goes on the rampage in Helsinki and first shots? Read the full story (in Finnish) here.
