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.
