Like Jo Cox, Anna Lindh was a politician who was murdered in the run up to a referendum about EU membership. Ostensibly, she was randomly killed by a "lone nut".

Anna Lindh (19 June 1957 – 11 September 2003), was a Swedish Social Democratic Party politician, chairman of the Social Democratic Youth League from 1984 to 1990 and a Member of Parliament from 1982 to 1985 and 1998 to 2003. Joining the government as Minister of Environment in 1994, she was elevated to Minister for Foreign Affairs by Prime Minister Göran Persson in 1998 and considered his successor as party chairman and PM (neither of which posts had ever been held by a woman) before her assassination in September 2003.

Anna Lindh was married to Bo Holmberg, Governor of Södermanland (her home constituency for over 20 years), with whom she had two sons.[1]

Assassination

Foreshadowing the fate of Jo Cox, Anna Lindh was assassinated in the run up to a Swedish referendum about EU membership. In the event, the public mood on this topic was not greatly affected and the later voted not to join.[citation needed] The official narrative is that her murder had no deep political significance, that she was killed on a whim by "lone nut" Mijailo Mijailovic while he was high on Flunitrazepam. He reportedly expressed little sign of remorse during the trial and gave few clues as to his motives, claiming 8 years later to have done it on impulse.[1]
