Traces of the World War One poison gas, phosgene, were detected at Sweden's security service HQ last Friday, according to official documents.
Around 500 people were evacuated from the building and eight sent to hospital.
This contradicts an earlier statement from Sapo, the security service, which said no gas was detected.
Phosgene, which has a strong odor and can cause vomiting and breathing trouble, was used as a weapon in World War I.
