Migrationsjurist döms till fängelse efter att ha bitit både en taxichaufför och en polis. Helda Augustin, 33, döms av Stockholms tingsrätt efter en händelse i januari då hon först bet en taxichaufför i armen och senare en polis på polisstationen. Hon förekommer under 23 avsnitt i belastningsregistret och har under flera år arbetat som ombud och offentligt biträde i migrationsärenden. I målförteckningar från migrationsdomstolarna i Stockholm, Göteborg och Malmö förekommer hon i över 120 mål. Augustin har tidigare dömts för bland annat rån, våldsamt motstånd, olaga hot, penningtvätt, snatteri, grov olovlig körning och grovt rattfylleri. Hon dömdes så sent som i april 2025 till två månaders fängelse för grovt rattfylleri och fick ytterligare två månaders fängelse för grovt rattfylleri i juli 2026. I den nya domen döms hon till en månads fängelse för misshandel och våld mot tjänsteman. Hon ska även betala 8 000 kronor i skadestånd till taxichauffören. Ett särskilt anmärkningsvärt fall inträffade på Arlanda 2024, då hon enligt tingsrätten gav sken av att vara polis och ville kontrollera två resenärers väskor med hjälp av sin hund. 23 avsnitt i belastningsregistret. Upprepade rattfylleridomar. Och nu fängelse efter att ha angripit två personer. Ändå har hon haft uppdrag som offentligt biträde i migrationsärenden, där staten står för kostnaden. #Migrationsjuridik #Rättsväsende #Sverige
