According to the police, a large number of people believed to belong to the leadership of various criminal networks are now in custody, among other things after the police in Sweden through the French police gained access to encrypted communications.
which in a new way showed who leads the business.
But if drug trafficking, shootings and bombings are to be reduced, recruitment must come in years, says National Police Chief Anders Thornberg.
– Since we incapacitate more and more people, it will not be of much help if recruitment in criminal circles is not interrupted. There is a very large influx of young people all the time, says the Chief of the National Police.
As Ekot reported It is a large number of people who, according to the police, belong to the leadership of criminal networks deprived of liberty – in several of the investigations, advances occurred when the police accessed communication from the encrypted application Encrochat – which gave the police a new perspective. in how networks were governed.
– It’s terrible to hear this, you order a murder like you order a pizza and you thought you could speak in plain text, says Anders Thornerg.
Stockholm police estimate that around 70 people who consider themselves to belong to leaders and organizers of networks linked to shootings, bombings and drug trafficking, will be brought to justice for various crimes in the near future. But there is still a lot of work to be done, says regional police chief Mats Löfving.
– Now we have hit the directors and organizers hard, there are still criminals at lower levels, enablers and interpreters and it is important for us to continue. But we are talking about a pretty grim number: we have around 1,500 networked criminals in Stockholm, says Mats Löfving.
So that figure doesn’t sound like 60-70 prosecutions?
– It is very big because we take directors and send signals to all criminals that those who you thought were inaccessible are locked up, so it is extremely important.
Chief of the National Police Anders Thornberg says it is not enough for people on the networks to be prosecuted and convicted as long as it is constantly filled with new young people joining the networks.
– You have to make sure that no new young people enter and immediately at the first indications you have to be strong. Society has really failed to set those limits and take the appropriate action, he says.
