Explanation:
"... en åklagare i våras missade ett klockslag, då en häktad antingen skulle släppas eller åtalas. Resultatet blev att den misstänkte satt frihetsberövad i 2,5 timme utan laga grund."

Sort of like lifting the veil of color of law and finding... nothing.

Similar to "obehörig myndighetsutövning" ("Color of office").

As opposed to, for example, not even being who you say you are (impersonating someone).

Compare and contrast:

"misstanke om falskt föregivande av allmän ställning"
