Guards at the Kirseberg prison, in Malmo, have accused the unnamed prisoner of deliberately breaking wind in a dirty protest against prison life.
Anders Eriksson, the prison's warden, realised that the inmate's repeated episodes of flatulence were "a series of concerted attacks" on staff.
"I have worked within the prisons and probation service since 1986 and I have never experienced a situation where behaviour of this sort has led to punishment," he told Sweden's Metro newspaper.
The apparent motive came to light a couple of weeks ago when the prisoner was playing cards with fellow inmates.
"I had an upset stomach while I was playing cards but did not want to fart there. So I went over to the guards instead," the 21-year-old convict told the prison authorities.
When challenged over his behaviour and summoned for questioning, the prisoner claimed that his "farts were all noise and no fragrance".
He has been served with an official warning that future flatulent conduct towards prison guards will be punished.
