In a shocking turn of events, a 15-year-old boy was shot dead in a Stockholm restaurant on January 28, in what is suspected to be a contract killing linked to the city’s ongoing gang war.
The main suspect in the case is now a 16-year-old boy, who has been accused of carrying out the fatal shooting. According to the prosecutor, the teenager was allegedly provided with accommodation, weapons, and transportation to and from the crime scene. Despite the evidence, the accused denies any involvement in the murder.
After the shooting, the 16-year-old was reportedly seen posing for photos with large sums of money. This disturbing detail has only added to the shock and outrage surrounding the case.
Authorities believe that the murder is a result of escalating tensions in Stockholm’s gang wars. It is suspected to be a retaliatory act for an earlier incident in which a home linked to a relative of Foxtrot network leader Rawa Majid was targeted. It has been suggested that the 15-year-old victim was involved in the earlier act of violence, leading to his tragic demise in Skogås.
A total of ten individuals have been charged with involvement in the murder, and investigations are ongoing to determine the role of a 25-year-old man suspected of orchestrating the killing.
The harrowing incident has sent shockwaves through the community and raised concerns about the escalating violence in Stockholm’s gang wars. Authorities are working tirelessly to bring those responsible to justice and put an end to the devastating cycle of violence gripping the city.
