Alarm in Europe! Gangs are recruiting teenagers as contract killers through

A new criminal phenomenon is spreading in several European countries, where organized crime organizations are using teenagers as hired killers to carry out assassinations and violent attacks.

The Swedish crime network Foxtrot is accused of recruiting young people through social media, luring them with sums of money and giving them instructions via communication apps. According to authorities, the recruitment method is structured as a “game”, where young people receive tasks and step-by-step instructions.

One of the cases that has shocked authorities is that of 18-year-old Swedish Atilla Azimov, who was sentenced to life in prison after mistakenly killing a 20-year-old man on the outskirts of Stockholm. According to investigations, he was hired by the Foxtrot network for financial payment.

Swedish authorities suspect that this network has been involved in dozens of murders and attacks since 2022, while investigations have also revealed suspected links to Iranian regime interests for several operations in Europe.

Another case is that of Norwegian Johannes Natland, who was convicted of planning a murder in the UK. Investigators found that he had been contacted online, provided with instructions on weapons and the location of the target, but was arrested before he could carry out the attack.

According to Europol, the phenomenon known as “Violence as a Service” (VaaS) is increasingly affecting European countries. A special task force involving 11 countries is investigating networks that recruit vulnerable young people for criminal acts.

Experts warn that criminal groups are increasingly targeting young people, as they are easier to manipulate and often do not think about the legal consequences.

Despite the arrests of several key figures in the Foxtrot network, authorities say the model of recruiting teenagers for violence is being copied by other criminal groups in Europe.
