		</div><p>An 18-year-old man who attacked and killed two teachers with an axe at a Swedish secondary school has been found guilty of two counts of murder and sentenced to life in prison.</p>
<p>Fabian Vidar Cederholm, who was a student at the school in Malmo, Sweden’s third-largest city, was arrested shortly after the incident on March 21st.</p>
<p>The defendant was not previously known to authorities and had no criminal record.</p>
<p>Both victims — Victoria Edstrom and Sara Book — were found on the third floor of the city centre Malmo Latin School 10 minutes after police were alerted.</p>
<p>Malmo District Court followed the suggestion of prosecutor Johanna Liljeblad who had asked that Cederholm, who has confessed to the crime, be sentenced to life.</p>
<p>In Sweden, this generally means a minimum of 20-25 years in prison, but could be extended.</p>
<p>The court said Cederholm killed Ms Edstrom and Ms Book “by hacking them to death with an axe”.</p>
<p>Judge Johan Kvart said Cederholm had also used a knife.</p>
<p>The court said he was sentenced to life in prison because “the acts were particularly reckless”, and added that the motive for the violent behaviour had not been fully clarified.</p>
<p>“These are two very brutal murders where the victims suffered severely,” Mr Kvart said in a statement.</p>
<p>A lawyer for the defendant told Swedish media earlier that the defendant’s actions were “completely inexplicable”.</p>
<p>Students at the school, which has about 1,100 pupils, had gathered to work on a musical, with youngsters locking themselves inside classrooms as the attack began.</p>
