Criminal gangs recruiting teenage girls as assassins and bombers, officials warn
Share this @internewscast.com

Sweden is currently facing a unique type of gang violence where teenage girls are being used by criminals for assassinations, arson, and bombings, as found in a Telegraph investigation.

The investigation highlights that 15-year-old girls, referred to as “Green Women” by gang leaders, are being recruited through social media with promises of cash for committing lethal crimes.

Prosecutor Lisa dos Santos told the U.K.outlet that gangs exploit a blind spot where girls were initially overlooked by investigators.

In 2023 alone, 280 girls aged 15-17 were charged with violent offenses, including murder and manslaughter. 

Authorities believe the true figure linked to organized crime is likely much higher, with many cases left unprosecuted.

According to the report by the Telegraph, Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer recognized this pattern as a significant issue within Sweden, emphasizing that girls are involved in criminal networks to a much larger extent than previously believed.
