A 17-year-old from Hässleholm has been charged with aiding an attempted murder in Uddevalla, where a man was shot in the head, according to reports. The teenager is also charged with attempted murder and incitement to murder in Malmö, and is alleged to have carried out assignments for criminal networks for payment. According to prosecutor Per-Erik Rinsell, who led the investigation, the 17-year-old had contact with Ali Shehab, who has been identified as Foxtrot's murder contractor, before the shooting.
The case involves what prosecutors describe as 'crime as a service,' where assignments were sought through the encrypted app Signal. The 17-year-old is one of five teenage boys from Skåne, aged 15-17, who were charged at Uddevalla District Court on Tuesday. The boys are suspected of being involved in two attempted murders in Uddevalla and Malmö at the end of last summer.
His client denies the allegations regarding Malmö but admits to the attempted murder in Uddevalla.
According to the charges, the 17-year-old shot a man in the back of the head with a pistol at his workplace in Uddevalla on September 10. His defense attorney states that his client denies the allegations regarding Malmö but admits to the attempted murder in Uddevalla. The attempted murder in Uddevalla is alleged to have been ordered by the Foxtrot network, and the 17-year-old was reportedly aware of this.
