About Tony Stigsson
- Stig Kent Tony Stigsson (born 6 November 1956) is a former Swedish Army major general, former head of the Joint Forces Command of the Swedish Armed Forces.
- Until 2005, Stigsson was also president of the Swedish Wrestling Federation.
- Stigsson was arrested in early 2005 on suspicion of rape, spousal abuse and mishandling of top secret classified documents.
- He was convicted of spousal abuse on 6 July 2005 and sentenced to 6 months of prison for two counts of assault, which was later reduced to three months on appeal.
- Stigsson was relieved of all duties at the Swedish Armed Forces, while the government disciplinary board (Statens ansvarsnämnd) was reviewing whether Stigsson was to be dismissed from the Swedish Armed Forces.
- While the above were the main charges, an incriminating factor in the case from the start has been Stigsson's interest in sado-masochistic sex practices which, together with his careless handling of secret documents, were considered a clear security risk by investigators.
- In May 2008, Stigsson was sentenced to three months in prison and was fired from the Swedish Armed Forces.
