Sabotage of TV tower in Sweden

[bema]

The 322 m hight TV mast in Borås (South-western part of Sweden) collapsed on Sunday evening by a sabotage. Someone removed the screw-nuts from some of the supporting guy wires. The tower is now totally broken but a 100 m part is still standing but without all supporting guy wires..

All DVB-T/T2 and most of the FM transmissions are down in this area...

Security tightened after suspected sabotage of TV-transmitter - Radio Sweden

A capital offence in my book.

Wow, that's got to go down as one of the most antisocial things one can do. Must be a disgruntled employee, certainly someone who knows about mast construction.

Maybe someone who lives nearby and for whom the mast blocked access to a satellite that he just couldn't live without

Maybe that's what them kids that went up Pontop Pike (and probably ruined their chances of ever breeding) back in 2014 were trying to do...

That turned out to be an "Orgonite" (google it) probably placed there by somebody in delusion he's allergic to electromagnetic radiation , a new-age device meant to transform negative energy to positive.
