Olof Palme (January 30, 1927 – March 1, 1986) (murdered) was a Swedish politician. He was the leader of the Social Democratic Party from 1969-1986 to his death and Prime Minister of Sweden from 1969 - 1976 and 1982 - 1986. He was shot dead in Stockholm after going to the cinema on February 28 1986. The killer has never been arrested, and the gun has never been found. His murder is still a mystery for Swedish police, even though many people have been arrested during the years.
