TIL: some European countries allow a trial in absentia, some don't.

Do you have a reference that they are not possible in Sweden?

I can't find anything either way.




Even if they're possible, the fact that they haven't chosen to do so doesn't mean they don't have evidence. What would the point be anyway? They have to get custody to actually enforce any possible sentence.
