— It is an opportunity for us, because in these conversations we have the opportunity to get information, but we also of course have the opportunity to make assessments if there is a real threat to someone and then we can act, says Hanna Paradis, head of command at the Stockholm Police , to the radio.
Until the middle of April this year, there have been 102 shootings, 10 people have been killed and there have been 52 explosions in Sweden, and many of the incidents are linked to gang crime.
The wave of violence that has hit the Stockholm area in recent months has led to a so-called special incident with the police, where they focus above all on gang crime.
