Svea Court of Appeal upholds the life sentence for a 29-year-old after the murder of a 15-year-old boy who was shot to death inside a restaurant in Skogås.

The man is convicted of aiding and abetting the murder. The shooter, who was also 15 years old, followed instructions he received in chats. There, the 29-year-old was a driving force and was in direct contact with the person who gave the order to enter the restaurant and kill the 15-year-old.

The fatal shooting in Skogås in Huddinge municipality in January 2023 is linked to the conflict between Foxtrot and Dalennätverket. It was, according to the investigation, a revenge for the 15-year-old having shot at a residential building where a relative of Foxtrot leader Rawa Majid lived.

The 29-year-old is also convicted of an attempted murder and preparation for murder, two serious weapons offenses and a narcotics offense.

The man is serving a prison sentence of 18 years for serious narcotics offenses and aiding and abetting an attempted murder. That sentence was converted to life imprisonment after the verdict in Skogås, which is now confirmed by the court of appeal.

The prosecutor has described the man as "a coordinator for violent crimes high up in the chain" who is closely linked to the Foxtrot network. From abroad, he has organized and controlled people in Sweden to commit serious crimes.
