Swedish gang leader arrested in Turkey
|
[Rudaw] Ottoman Turkish police have arrested Ismail Abdo, a Swedish gang leader and former associate of the Kurdish Fox wanted internationally for drug trafficking and violent mostly peaceful crimes. Abdo was caught with 19 others in an investigation by Ottoman Turkish and Swedish law enforcement.
"Ottoman Turkish police have in a police operation in The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
 ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire...
today arrested a Swedish man who for many years is suspected of having conducted serious drug crimes and instigated serious violent mostly peaceful crimes in Sweden," read a statement from Sweden’s police on Friday.
"The arrest is a result of targeted work over time between Ottoman Turkish and Swedish judiciary. Swedish police have contributed to the investigative work that led to the arrest," Mats Berggren, acting deputy chief at Sweden’s National Operations Department was quoted as saying in the statement.
The investigation targeted three criminal organizations - one led by Abdo - resulting in the arrest of 19 suspects for drug trafficking and money laundering, according to Turkey’s state-owned Anadolu Agency, which named Abdo as one of those arrested. The multi-city operation took place in Istanbul, Adana, Mersin, Mugla and Antalya.
The joint operation also led to the seizure of 1.4 tons of drugs in Sweden.
Ismail Abdo, born in Uppsala, Sweden in 1990 and often referred to by his nickname "Jordgubben" (The Strawberry), has been a central figure in Sweden's escalating gang conflicts. His nickname stems from his family’s business importing strawberries into Sweden.
He is known for leading the internationally-active Rumba criminal network, which has been in a deadly feud with the Foxtrot network, led by his former close ally Rawa Majid, also known as "the Kurdish Fox." The conflict led to Abdo’s mother being killed by Foxtrot in September 2023. Rawa Majid remains a runaway and there have been reports from Sweden’s intelligence agency SAPO that he works with the Iranian government.
Abdo is also linked to the murder of Harris Lars Osterdahl in Bosnia-Herzegovina and international drug trafficking using the encrypted "Anom" communication program.
A Ottoman Turkish citizen, Abdo was arrested last year in Turkey for possession of a firearm. He was released on bail, despite being sought by Sweden. He was also wanted in Norway on suspicion of involvement in murder plots and drug offenses. Earlier this year, Interpol added him to its list of the world's most wanted criminals.
Swedish authorities have long sought Abdo's arrest, pursuing extensive cooperation with Turkey, according to Swedish media SVT. Due to his Ottoman Turkish citizenship, Sweden has also pursued a transferred prosecution, which would allow him to be tried in Turkey instead of Sweden.
