The man, who called himself “Scar”, is suspected to have moved the country after the townhouse blast in Hässelby in March 2023. He is suspected from abroad to have orchestrated a number of crimes with young performers in Sweden.
In the summer of 2024 he was arrested in Greece with drugs and weapons and sentenced to 20 months in prison.
In August 2024, the alias “Muerta”, which the police suspects is the 24-year-old, laid out a murder contract in chat groups. A man took on the assignment and shot at two guys at a metro station in Bagarmossen.
But at this time, the 24-year-old was in prison. According to information for Assignment Review, “SCAR” must have had access to a mobile phone and continue to be able to order crimes from within the prison.
Fight against the clock for Swedish prosecutors
In the meantime, several Swedish prosecutors have worked to get him detained in his absence for a number of serious violent crimes, in order to have him extradited to Sweden.
Assignment Review, which next week releases a program about the explosive wave and its instigators, may reveal that Greece’s Supreme Court has decided to extradite the man to Sweden. But when this happens is unclear and for the Swedish prosecutors it is a fight against the clock. The man is in custody in Greece, but can only be extradited for the crimes he is arrested for. He is suspected of involvement in hundreds of serious crimes, according to information from prosecutors, and it is important for the investigators to have him detained for as many people as possible before he is disclosed.
