A 63-year-old woman was murdered in her home in Akalla because she was the mother of a gang criminal, according to the police theory.
She is described as a kind and helpful person who got involved in associations for young people.
– We are very touched by this. It’s terrible, says one of the woman’s friends.
The 63-year-old woman is believed to have been shot dead when she opened the front door on Tuesday, TV4 Nyheterna previously reported. The murder is described as a brutal execution where the victim was shot with several shots to the head.
The fatal shooting is suspected to have already taken place in the afternoon, but the woman was not found until a passing neighbor saw that the door was ajar at 7 p.m. and then called the police. This, too, according to information given to TV4 Nyheterna.
The police are working on the basis that the woman was the target and that the motive is connected to the fact that her son is a gang criminal in a network in Stockholm, according to TV4 Nyhetern’s data. A revenge spiral is now feared and the police have deployed extra resources in the Järva area.
The friend: Sitting and waiting for her to call
TV4 Nyheterna has spoken to a woman who was friends with the 63-year-old murder victim for almost 20 years.
– I just sit and wait for her to call. I used to talk to her at least twice a week. We used to talk to each other about everything, general shit, says the friend who does not want to be named.
– We are very concerned, very concerned. We are very shocked and it is very difficult. It is so tragic, so tragic that it is not wise. You don’t understand that it can happen and that you give up on his mother.
The woman was involved in several different organizations and associations, mainly for young people.
– She used to bake buns and help make coffee and stuff like that. The youth activities are in other cities and they are very concerned throughout the country.
“It shouldn’t have to happen again”
The friend describes the 63-year-old woman as a person who always stands up for everyone.
– She is kind, very kind. She helps when you ask her and there are never any problems. Like when I hurt a leg and then she came here and helped vacuum and things like that.
The woman’s friends plan to hold a public memorial service.
– This should not have to happen again, but we must react. We have to get something out to the politicians.
No one has been arrested for the murder.
