The Dödspatrullen network brought large quantities of drugs to Finland, which came from a gang leader known as Kurdiketta, the police say.
The small yellow detached house opposite the Ingo gas station in the Swedish city of Södertälje looks harmless from the outside.
However, the police suspect that large quantities of drugs have been distributed throughout Sweden and Finland from the house’s garage.
According to the Swedish police, the garage is the notorious “Kurdiketu” ie Rawa Majidin in use. When the police raided the garage at the end of April, they found a large amount of narcotics, weapons and explosives.
Majid is known as the leader of the criminal network Foxtrot. He is wanted for several serious crimes. He is known to be hiding abroad.
The same garage also plays a key role in the Dödspatrullen case, which is currently being tried in the Helsinki district court.
Kurdikettu runs a drug wholesale business
Almost thirty men in the Dödspatrullen gang are suspected of importing narcotics into Finland. The suspects include four members of the Swedish Dödspatrullen criminal network.
Swedish police Mats Lindström according to Dödspatrullen buys drugs from Kurdiketu’s Foxtrot network. Lindström was heard as a witness last week in the Helsinki district court.
– Foxtrot is a kind of wholesale shop from which Dödspatrullen orders drugs, which it then delivers on, Lindström told the court.
Swedish police found Foxtrot’s drugs in April when they raided Södertälje’s garage.
The trial is still in progress, but it appears from the Swedish preliminary investigation material that the police arrested a woman at the time who was distributing drugs from a garage all over Sweden. According to the police and the prosecutor, the woman received orders directly from Rawa Majid.
The leader of Foxtrot, Majid, is one of Sweden’s most famous gang leaders. The recent violence in Sweden has been said to be largely a showdown between him and another gang leader.
Drugs were brought from the garage to Ämmässuo
A week before the police raid in April, the last load of drugs was brought to Finland from the same garage.
From the preliminary investigation of the Dödspatrullen skein, it appears that the transports to Finland were handled by two drivers.
One of them told in detail during the interrogations how he went to pick up several boxes of marijuana and Xalol pills from a garage in Södertälje. He packed the marijuana in bags and hid it in a semi-trailer combination in a separate space built for smuggling. Then he drove to Finland via Tornio.
The drugs were handed over in Finland to two men who had come to Ämmässuo in Espoo by taxi to meet the driver. After that, the driver continued his journey by ship back to Sweden and the pattern repeated itself.
According to the preliminary investigation, a total of more than 350 kilograms of drugs and more than one million drugs classified as narcotic drugs were brought to Finland in the Dödspatrullen gang.
FOX name badges and fox icons
In Finland, the Central Criminal Police and the Helsinki Police have been responsible for the investigation of the Dödspatrullen network. In the Finnish preliminary investigation material, the skein is not directly connected to Kurdikettu or the Foxtrot criminal network.
However, the investigation revealed things that seem to possibly point to them.
According to the preliminary investigation, the group’s money arrangement was controlled from abroad in the Signal instant messaging applications. The contact information of the names KURDISH FOX 1% and FOX 1 %%%%% was collected from the phone of one of the accused.
During the interrogations, he said that the FOX 1 %%%%% nickname was “Rawa” and the KURDISH FOX 1% nickname was “Kurdish Rawa” and that they were one and the same person.
The evidence also contains fox icons in drug accounting, which has been communicated in various discussions.
Director of investigations Marko Heinonen does not want to take a position on whether the Central Criminal Police investigates Kurdiketu’s and Foxtrot’s connection to the drug trade headed to Finland.
