A Swedish teenager in Australia is facing serious criminal charges for allegedly trying to recruit individuals to carry out contract killings in Sweden and Denmark. Arrested by Australian police in western Sydney, he has been charged with using encrypted messaging for this purpose while linked to a transnational criminal syndicate. The boy’s actions are part of a broader issue of escalating gang violence in the Nordic region, which has seen a rise in young contract killers due to low age limits on criminal responsibility.
"While in Australia, the young man is suspected of having attempted to recruit people to commit contract killings in Denmark and Sweden as part of ongoing gang conflicts in the Nordic region."
"He was charged with two counts of 'using a device connected to a telecommunications network with intention to commit a serious offence': one count related to 'murder' and the other to 'conspiracy to murder'."
