The designated Swedish gang leader who has been arrested in Mexico is detained in his absence for at least 27 serious crimes committed in different parts of the country.

According to Ekot in Swedish Radio it is about involvement in narcotics smuggling, several cases of attempted murder and murder preparations as well as bombings.

According to Mexican authorities, the man, who is detained by the district courts in Sundsvall, Södertälje and Södertörn, will be extradited to Sweden.

To Ekot, his lawyer Joel Apitzsch says that the man denies the crimes for which he has been detained in Sweden and that "the outcome in an extradition case is never given in advance".
