Tony Deogan
Tony Deogan memory mark in Högalidsparken, 2008.
Tony Deogan (25 November 1975 – August 2, 2002) was a Swedish man killed in Stockholm before a football match, when he suffered a brutal attack at the hands of supporters of another team.
Beating
Deogan became the first Swede to be killed as a result of football hooliganism. He was beaten at Högalidsparken on Södermalm by AIK supporters. Deogan was a supporter of IFK Göteborg, who had played AIK at Råsunda Stadium on 29 July 2002.
A couple of days later he died from injuries he sustained from the brutal beating. His alleged attackers never went to trial because no one wanted to witness. The once high-profile case remains unsolved.
In 2007, all the case documents disappeared and were burned by the responsible attorney.
