Finland police investigate suspected intrusions into parliament members' homes

Police say fewer than 20 suspected incidents have emerged, and investigators have found no signs of forced entry or theft.

  • On Thursday, Finnish police launched a preliminary investigation into suspected intrusions at the homes of members of parliament, working with the National Bureau of Investigation.
  • Speaker of Parliament Jussi Halla-aho reported his office received alerts last week, noting that while nothing was stolen, signs of intrusion were left in homes with some incidents dating back about a year.
  • Newspaper Ilta-Sanomat reported earlier this week that members of parliament had been warned of potential break-ins, with the outlet aware of at least two home intrusions.
  • President Alexander Stubb described the suspected intrusions as "an attack on democracy," emphasizing such actions should not be accepted while speaking at a Rovaniemi ceremony introducing F-35 jet fighters.
  • Deputy Speaker Paula Risikko confirmed police are handling the "initial stage of the investigation," while authorities stressed there is currently no information regarding the motive or who was responsible.
