He exposed sexual abuse and sexual trade within government agencies in 2005.[4] He was an outspoken critic of the Swedish Migration Agency in relation to abuse against assailants.[5] In 2007, he actively scrutinized the Swedish government for turning a blind eye to corruption within the police force following the arrest of Göran Linberg or “Kapten Klänning” (Captain Dress), a police chief that later was exposed as a serial rapist.[6] In 2009, Dag Helin resigned without formal notice.[7] In June 2009, he stated in an article published by SVT that “no reason was given to as to why he should resign”.[7] Today the circumstances behind the resignation are still uncertain.
