The arrest took place after cooperation between Swedish, Danish and Spanish authorities as well as Europol and Eurojust.
The three people are detained in absentia by the Solna district court. One of them is in custody for involvement in attempted murder, preparation for murder and weapons crimes in Sweden, Denmark and Spain.
The suspected crimes took place during the spring and summer of 2024. These include events in Copenhagen, Malmö and Kista where young people have been recruited to participate in serious acts of violence.
– Thanks to very good cooperation between authorities in Sweden, Denmark and Spain, three people have now been arrested. In addition, Eurojust has contributed with an important contact network that is crucial to the case, says prosecutor Anna Arnell in a comment.
