Nigerian Man Arrested in Iceland for Allegedly Infecting Women with HIV

A Nigerian man, whose identity is yet to be revealed, has been arrested for allegedly affecting young women with HIV.

The accused is said to be a Nigerian asylum seeker who arrived in Iceland in August 2014, Iceland Review reports.

According to the report:

Part of the investigation includes finding out if any more women have been in contact with the man, and whether they might also be infected…

Details of the man’s suspected crimes have not been released. One likely explanation for his arrest could be engaging in unprotected sex with the women without telling them he has HIV—an act which would be against the law.
