Sweden’s teenage girl assassins: How ruthless mobsters are recruiting ‘young blondes’ to kill and maim rivals in ‘napalm’ bomb attacks in gang-ravaged Swedish cities

The Swedish criminal gangs recruit teenage girls to carry out brutal killings and Maim rivals in “napalm” bombs attacks in Swedish cities delighted with gangs.

Girls as young as 15 are recruited on social networks as “soldiers’ children” and have given money to make murders before spending blood money on clothes and handbags.

The Nordic nation, formerly considered to be a haven of weak crime, has been seized by the violence of extreme gangs in recent years and has one of the worst European weapons crime rates with frequent gangland fire and bombing.

Children were used by gangs to commit crimes on an unprecedented scale, the country moving this month to reduce the age of criminal responsibility to 13.

But while many have generally been men, vulnerable and poor or migrant history, gangsters now look for young girls.

The attackers, known as “green women”, are increasingly “young, blond, typical” Swedish “, and are supposed to attract less suspicion when they put or help wild attacks.

They are promised rapid money, with bonuses of up to £ 13,000 offered for successful success. Less risky tasks, including the napalm mixture to help the assassinations, can also recover thousands.

Once registered, the young recruits make a dirty job of the gang bosses, murdering parents of rival gangsters and other targets, often without ever meeting the person who orders the murder.

Many want to demonstrate that they are more ruthless than their male counterparts.

A girl, Olivia, was taken on CCTV delivering with casually bags containing an explosive nicknamed “napalm” after being hired to build and deliver a fire bomb for a criminal fire attack against a rival gang.

The 17 -year -old was approached by a gang “manager” on social networks that offered him money and told her that she had to help the “today” petrol bomb attack.

She then went to buy petrol, fuel cans and other ingredients to assemble the Molotov style bomb, said Swedish investigators.

After combining the ingredients, she gave them to a pair of male gangsters.

She was then found to have sent a text to her boyfriend to say that the transfer “went well”.

He sent him a text to a link to a news on the resulting attack accompanied by a term of Swedish slang, translated by “wild” or “cool”.

The teenager was sentenced to a one -year prison sentence for helping and encouraged a criminal fire.

Lisa Dos Santos, Swedish prosecutor, told Telegraph: “ they [the gangs] Call them Green Ladies, green as in beginners, because the police did not look at them in the same way as men.

“Police is now aware that girls participate, but I think it is always easier for them to fly under the radar.”

Evin Cetin, an expert in crime for young people and lawyer, said that the recruitment of young girls was a “strategic plan” by gangs because “the Swedish system, the police, would never think of arresting a Swedish blonde girl”.

“Girls are often identified as victims … But their participation in criminal circles is much more widespread than what we have supposed for a long time,” said the Minister of Justice in Sweden, Gunnar Strömmer, in April.

“I had a case involving a 15 -year -old girl recruited to shoot someone on the head,” said Stockholm prosecutor Ida Arnell.

“She was able to choose the type of mission she wanted, in other words, to target the guy’s door or her head. She chose her head.

Olivia was one of the 280 girls aged 15 to 17 who were accused of murder, guilty manslaughter or other violent offenses last year.

It is not known how many people were linked to organized crime, but Swedish investigators claim that the number can be much higher because many are not prosecuted.

Children were considered ideal targets for gangs, because until this month, these under 15 years of age would not be carefully responsible for their actions.

The country finally lowered the age of criminal responsibility to 13 years after an increase in the under 15s suspected of murder, aid and encouraging murder or attempted murder.

During the first six months of 2024, there were 93 cases, three times the same period the previous year.

But the number of shots and murders linked to gangs decreased as a whole in 2024 and slowed again this year.

The increase in girls suspected of serious gang crimes caused a diplomatic row with Hungary after Sweden accused Viktor Orban of having tried to “dismantle” the rule of law.

“The Swedish government gives us conferences on the rule of law. Meanwhile, according to an article by Die Welt, criminal networks exploit Swedish children as killers, knowing that the system will not condemn, “said Hungarian Prime Minister.

While the use of young girls by gangsters shocked Sweden, the country has long been invaded by an “economy of gang violence”.

Children traveling across the country to commit cash crimes become “the new normal,” warned Erik Lindblad, head of the working group of the police gangs, warned last year.

He said online discussion groups advertise jobs to “tens of thousands” of young members, inviting them to volunteer.

A recent case saw the police arrest a 16 year old after a triple deadly shot in a hair salon in the city of Uppsala in April.

Three young men, aged 15 to 20, were killed in the head in what was considered a murder linked to a gang.

One of the people who died in the attack was said to have been known to the police because he was involved in the investigation into an attack on a parent of the local gang leader Ismail Abdo.

Abdo, whose nickname is “The Strawberry”, is a well -known figure in the Uppsala gangland.

Her mother was murdered at home in the city in 2023, which sparked a dark and violence chapter from the violence of gangs in the country.

Earlier in April, two people were killed in an alleged gang fight in Göteborg, while a famous hip-hop artist was shot in a gang battle in the city in December.

And last month, a person was killed with another injured during a shooting linked to a gang near a mosque in the city of Orebro.
