A Dane of Iranian descent has been arrested in Dubai on suspicion of being the head of Los Suecos, meaning “the Swedes”, and its members are suspected of ordering shootings, kidnappings, torching beach-front restaurants and bombing rivals' warehouses on the Costa del Sol.
The man is said to have led the liquidation (in 2018) of the prominent Spanish criminal “El Maradona” (photo), right in front of a church in San Pedro Alcántara.
He is suspected of directing at least 17 assassinations, it has been reported that Spanish police have previously linked Los Suecos to Ridouan Taghi, Holland’s most wanted man when he was also arrested in Dubai in December as part of a huge international manhunt.

A group of French people in Marbella are suspected of having been involved in the kidnapping and disappearance of a Dutchman in August last year . This man has been missing since then. The kidnapping was carried out by eight people dressed as police officers

Children
According to Spanish media , the victim was a Dutchman of Moroccan descent. He had been eating dinner with his girlfriend at an expensive restaurant between Avenida del Prado and Calle París in Nueva Andalucia when he was attacked. It was 10 p.m. when eight people got out of two cars and threatened the Dutchman with firearms.

The man has been identified as JB. He has never been heard from since, and no word has come from the kidnappers. The four children are said to have been told that their father is on a trip, pending final news.

Executed
Investigators from the Spanish National Police are now said to be targeting a group of French hitmen who may have committed at least ten liquidations on the Costa del Sol and are also behind this disappearance.

Police also link the group to a liquidation that took place a few days after the kidnapping. The target was a French businessman, of Arab descent, who was executed in his home. A friend found the body the next morning. It is suspected that the killers climbed into the house through one of the balconies.

“The ‘ndrangheta is active in Girona and in the province of Madrid, in Murcia and in Catalonia. The camorra is in Barcelona and Tarragona, but also in Valencia and Tenerife. The camorra can be found In Ibiza too where Cosa nostra settled many years ago. The Sicilian mafia is also in Zaragoza and naturally here in Madrid too”. Explains Rosa who has been investigating into Italian criminal associations for years.

“In Malaga on the other hand, there’s a bit of everything” adds Grinda, who seems almost to cite the 2016 Italian DIA report. In that report the logistic importance of Spain is highlighted, used as a platform both by Latin American narco-traffickers and the European clans: in this respect, Spain is a sort of safe haven for half the world’s criminal associations. “All the criminal organisations present in Spain deal in drug trafficking, within our country but most of all towards Europe: Italy, Holland, France, Belgium, Germany”, explains Grinda, who goes on to say: “When I say all criminal organisations I mean all. They are all here in Spain: Italians, Albanians, Nigerians, but most of all Russians who are the emerging mafia here”.

The Costa's are like Miami for the Europeans, party time at the bar of Paco LOL.

Utrecht drug trafficker Ebrahim Buzhu (52) has been liquidated in southern Spain. ‘The Butcher’, as he was known in the milieu, was regarded as Ridouan Taghi’s arch-rival, and in the summer of 2015 was the first to tell police how powerful Taghi and his organization had become.

Buzhu’s body was found on Sunday in a burned-out car on a country road near Chiclana de la Frontera, a town just south of the port city of Cádiz. He appeared to have been shot in the head.

It's unbelievable how the Taghi's are killing everybody witnesses lawyers journalists

It's insane how that region of Spain is swarmed with criminals. You definitely don't wanna mess with any non-Spanish guy you come across over there. Chances are extremely high he's connected to organized crime.

Assassination commandos Dutch underworld ravage Spanish Costas

The liquidation of the Utrecht citizen Ibrahim 'The Butcher' Buzhu (52) in Spain last week is a new chapter in a book full of violence around Dutch criminals on the Costas. They often stay there for the drug trade and they feel safe there, but they are far from that.

In the summer of 2018, a policeman collects bullets between bales of cocaine, after a sailing ship with 1500 kilos was intercepted in Cadiz.

In the quiet town of Chiclana de la Frontera, near the port city of Cadiz, a burned-out car containing the body of a man was found last Sunday. He appeared to have been shot in the head. Police sources in Spain speak of possible torture, after which Buzhu had to get on his knees and was executed.

The town plays a role in the liquidation process Eris around the biker gang Caloh Wagoh. The later key witness Tony de G. was arrested on October 13, 2017. He had fled the Netherlands after the murder of the Amsterdam criminal Jair Wessels, in which he participated.

The man who has now been liquidated there is Ibrahim 'The Butcher' Buzhu (52). A man who is best known as the person who first made a statement to the police in 2015 about the detained top criminal and Marengo chief suspect Ridouan Taghi, as well as his right-hand man and also detainee Saïd Razzouki. De Telegraaf revealed its contents at the time.

The group around Taghi was hunting for Buzhu, he told the detectives. He was always aware of the danger he continued to run. Was the dumping of Buzhu's body in Chiclana de la Frontera symbolic because Tony de G. was staying there? Who talks who goes?

Tension
Butcher was very aware of the dangers posed by his enemy Taghi. In recent years he led a nomadic life. He considered southern Spain to be safe because he knew his way around well. Wrongly, as it turned out on Thursday evening when the news of the liquidation reached the Utrecht underworld.

The last year of Buzhu's life was full of tension. In June, Spanish police seized a large consignment of drugs. Butcher was one of the owners and fled headlong to France. The stress of constantly having to look over the shoulder for police and criminal opponents resulted in heart problems. He moved to the Netherlands, where he had to be admitted to an Eindhoven hospital due to heart complaints.

Dutch assassination squad arrested in Spain

The Dutch-Moroccan Buzhu was traditionally a hashish trader and therefore mainly resided in Spain, which plays an important role in the trade in hashish from Morocco. Spain has been a popular base for Dutch criminals since the 1960s. Money is easy to launder in real estate, the country is strategically convenient for drug smuggling and has large ports for drug imports. In addition, it is simply a beautiful country with an excellent climate. It is not for nothing that criminals from all over the world do business there. Criminally 'vipping' under the sun.

The Heineken kidnappers Willem Holleeder and Cor van Hout were frequent visitors, drug dealer Henk 'De Zwarte Cobra' R. was arrested in 2003 and murder broker and key witness Fred Ros of the liquidation process Passage was also on a campsite when he was caught. The 'coke broker' Naima Jillal, who disappeared in 2019, brought parties together from and in Spain for the smuggling of cocaine.

Motorcycle clubs
After roughly 2010, chapters of Dutch motorcycle clubs sprang up in Spain. No Surrender and Satudarah, among others, opened countless chapters, especially along the coast. And the mocro mafia also set foot in that era. Mainly using old smuggling routes and contacts from the hash trade. The contraband got whiter and whiter.

Cocaine is much more profitable. The liquidated Buzhu described this change in detail to the criminal investigation department in 2015.

With the introduction of coke came the violence. In 2013, the Haarlem criminal Frank 'Pancake' was riddled with bullets in front of his house in Marbella and a year later it was the turn of the Amsterdam cocaine giant Samir 'Sammy Scarface' Bouyakhrichan (34). Since then it has happened almost every year. Sometimes several times.

“Today we are more bothered by murder commandos, especially from the Netherlands, than from drug smuggling,” concludes Manuel González of the Guardia Civil in Cadiz. Shootings, kidnappings and underworld murders plague the Costas. This summer, another murder squad from the Netherlands was rounded up in Spain.

Manuel González: "More trouble with assassination squads."

According to Gonzáles, there is another reason for the presence of many criminals in Spain. "They can live here quite anonymously because so many Europeans have settled here." For example, criminals like to stay in the Urbanizacións: closed and secured residential areas where they can live fairly anonymously.

In October 2018 the Utrecht Hamza Ziani was liquidated in Torremolinos. Ziani, an explosives specialist, belonged to a camp that was at war with Ridouan Taghi. And now it was Buzhu's turn. Whether the murder actually stems from the feud with the group around Taghi remains to be seen. In the trade, nothing is what it seems and the enemies are many.

ABROAD _MARBELLA - THE SPANISH POLICE HAVE ARRESTED TWO PEOPLE IN MARBELLA IN CONNECTION WITH THE KIDNAPPING OF DUTCH BUSINESSMAN JAMAL B. FROM ROOSENDAAL TWO YEARS AGO, THE SPANISH NEWSPAPER El Confidencial reports . At least six others are also suspects in the case.

The detainees are said to be two Frenchmen aged 37 and 42. They would be members of a violent criminal organization.

In August 2020, the man was kidnapped in a spectacular way. In a parking lot in front of a restaurant in Marbella, he was hit by two cars and dragged out of his car by eight heavily armed kidnappers dressed as policemen and taken away. His wife and five children were witnesses. Since then, every trace of the Dutchman of Moroccan origin has been missing. There are fears for his life.

At the end of January, the man's family offered a reward of 100,000 euros for the person who would give the golden tip. The anti-narcotics brigade that is investigating suspects that there is a settlement in the criminal circuit, but his wife disputes that. He may be confused with an uncle, Saïd Chaou, who is suspected of drug smuggling. In Morocco, he is still suspected of financially supporting protests in the north of the country. He was previously a member of parliament there and is a fierce critic of King Mohammed VI.
