Rawa Majid’s uncle shot to death • “We are taking into account for a proper war now”
Rawa Majid’s uncle was shot dead in a convenience store in Husby today.
Now the police are fearing a new revenge wave – and has warned other regions, according to information to TV4 News.
“The murder is like a declaration of war,” says a source.
The shooting took place in a convenience store in Husby in Northwest Stockholm at 15.30 on Wednesday.
A 65-year-old man was hit by the shots and died of his injuries. According to information to TV4 News, the murder victim is uncle to the infamous gang leader Rawa Majid, called Kurdish fox. He is also the father of a man convicted of a noted double murder.
Several police officers with whom TV4 News spoke now state that they see a high risk that a bloody spiral of violence is starting – with retaliation.
– We are taking a proper war now. Like 2023, if not worse, says an informant within the police.
“There is a desire for revenge”
According to information to TV4 News, the Stockholm Police has informed the police in Uppsala, where Rawa Majid has links, about Thursday’s murder. They are now also intensively investigating which persons the deed can be directed at.
– The risk, just like 2023, is that the public and people who are completely outside the gang conflict are affected, says another police source.
The start of the violence wave in 2023, which was unparalleled, was the murder of the mother to Ismail Abdo, called the strawberry, who, after an internal split in Foxtrot, led Rawa Majid’s opposing page.
– There is a revenge desire when you give up on such a close relative, says a police officer with transparency.
Mot fire against the police
A man who, according to information to TV4 News, is in his 30s and known by the police, is arrested for the murder of Rawa Majid’s uncle.
A police patrol must have witnessed the shooting death and be able to quickly catch the suspected shooter. During the hunt, there was a shot between the police and the man.
– When they control this person they perceive as a suspected offender, he and the police shoot back action, says Daniel Wikdahl at the Stockholm Police.
The arrested is also suspected of attempted murder of the police.
