The Malmö Östra hospital murders were a Swedish case of serial murders committed by the 18-year-old Anders Hansson at a hospital in Malmö between October 1978 and January 1979.[1] Hansson poisoned elderly patients during his working hours as an orderly with the detergents Gevisol and Ivisol.
At the long-term care part of the hospital, a total of 27 patients were poisoned to death, with at least 15 confirmed victims.[2] Another 15 patients were also victims of attempted murder. In August 1979, Hansson was sentenced to closed psychiatric treatment, where he remained until 1994.[1]
