Sweden has dropped its investigation into a backstage altercation in May involving the Dutch contestant in the Eurovision Song Contest who was expelled from the competition hours before the final.
After fan favourite Joost Klein was booted out, organisers said the reason was a probe by Swedish police into “a complaint made by a female member of the production crew”.
