Gang leader wanted revenge, convicted over 2020 murder plans

A gang leader in Örebro has been sentenced to six years in prison for planning to kill two people in 2020, reports Nerikes Allehanda.

The background is a long-standing conflict between two criminal networks in the Örebro area. According to the verdict, the designated gang leader was driven by revenge after his brother's murder in 2020.

According to the district court, the man acquired weapons and ammunition, as well as an apartment, as part of planning the attack, which was supposed to take place in July and August 2020.

The gang leader has been sentenced to six years in prison for preparation for murder and aggravated weapons offenses. Five other men were sentenced for their involvement, receiving prison terms ranging from two and a half years to eight years.
