Known for | LGBTQ+ rights advocacy |
Gabriel Boss Chabo (born 2 January 1986) is a Swedish public figure of Syrian origin, known for his involvement in human rights activism, particularly in support of LGBTQ+ communities. His public visibility in Sweden, including professional and media appearances, drew attention following a violent assault and a residential fire that both received significant media coverage.
Background
[edit]Chabo was born in Syria and relocated to Sweden at the age of nine. He resides in Södertälje and has worked publicly within cultural and community environments.
Assault incident
[edit]In 2020, Chabo was physically assaulted in what was reported by media as a suspected hate crime. The attack occurred in Södertälje and received widespread attention in national and LGBTQ+ media, with outlets citing Chabo's known support for LGBTQ+ rights.[1][2][3][4]
Residential fire
[edit]In January 2021, Chabo's residence was damaged by a fire that endangered his family. According to reports by LT and Svenska Alarm, the incident was narrowly averted due to a functioning alarm system.[5][6] Swedish police considered the possibility that the fire may have been intentional, and potentially motivated by hate, given Chabo’s public profile.[7]
Media recognition
[edit]Chabo's experience received both national and international media coverage, including features in Swedish public television (SVT), LGBTQ+ publications such as QX Magazine, and other online media. The incidents sparked renewed discussion on public safety for advocates of minority rights.
