Olof Palme was murdered in 1986 by gunshots from a 1930s .357 S&W Magnum. Two bullets were found but the suspected gun was found many years later, the gun was too damaged by rust and water, so it could not be a reliable evidence. Two male suspects were detained, and later were acquitted and released; both men were later killed under mysterious circumstances. As of 2010, there is no murderer, so the case is still unresolved. In 2011 the time limit for this crime will expire and the case must be closed.

As a social democrat, Olof Palme was critical of both Soviet communism and American capitalism.
