Joakim Lundell says he did not recall alleged childhood abuse until he was 31 after reading records, following revelations that staff at a Växjö forensic psychiatric clinic may have secretly monitored lawyer‑patient meetings.Documentary maker Bo‑Göran Bodin said a psychology professor helped with research but was not shown on screen, and researchers Pär Anders Granhag and psychologist David Waskuri told broadcasters that fully repressed memories returning intact lack scientific support even though fragmented memories can become clearer when records prompt recall.The disclosures have prompted a police investigation into suspected unlawful surveillance at the clinic, a surge of complaints to the
Swedish Media Authority and
Granskningsnämnden, and renewed calls from the Swedish Bar Association and rights groups for clearer rules on handling social services material and reporting recovered memories.
