The Policía Nacional have uncovered a criminal organisation that recruits minors in Sweden to carry out turf-war killings, sometimes even using explosives.

It all began with the arrest of a foreign minor in Benalmádena who had allegedly come to Spain to carry out an assassination against a member of a rival biker gang.

The minor, by which we mean an older teenager but still a minor, had been recruited via the social-media, messaging platform, Telegram. He was to receive an assault rifle and had instructions to start a fight over an e-scooter.

Around the same time as this arrest in the province of Málaga, two Swedish minors were arrested in Denmark, who had travelled to this country to carry out a murder. When they were arrested, they had firearms on them.

After these arrests, the national police forces, via Europol, closed in on the people allegedly behind the hit contracts, supplying drugs & weapons and using laundered cash. This reportedly turned out to be a married couple and their son.

At the beginning of this month, officers belonging to the GOES (Special Operations Group) raided the suspects’ home in San Juan (Alicante), where the parents and the rest of the gang were arrested. This dwelling was the operation centres for all the gang’s activities.

The police investigations also uncovered an important criminal network between Sweden and Eastern Europe which it is still under investigation with collaboration from the Swedish and Danish police.
