SWEDEN BURNING: Stockholm in flames as car fire epidemic rages in 'no-go' zone
The Express ^ | 12/01/2016 | By LIZZIE STROMME

The Scandinavian country has been plagued with arsonist thugs setting vehicles alight, with hundreds of cars burning out since 2015.

In 2016 alone, more than 70 cars have been destroyed as police struggle to combat the increasing violence and criminal activity in the famously liberal country.

The latest video shows three cars in Hallunda in southern Stockholm engulfed by flames as firefighters battle to put out the blaze.

Overnight Sunday another car was also reported to be burning out in the crime hotbed, which was heavily hit by arson attacks in 2015.

Hallunda was one of the cities which was placed on Sweden’s National Criminal Investigation Service’s list over “no-go” zones due to the police force’s increased lack of control over anti-social behaviour.

In February, Express.co.uk reported the Scandinavian country had seen a huge surge in crime since the start of the migrant crisis in Europe – with a rise in sex assaults, drug dealing and children carrying weapons.

At the time around 50 areas were put on a "blacklist" which are then divided into three categories from "risk areas" to "seriously vulnerable" as it was announced Stockholm had over 20 no-go areas where over 75,000 people live.

However, the figure was increased to 55 in September as the Swedish police force face a recruitment crisis, with on average three officers handing in their notice every day.

Hallunda, with a population with just over 14,000, was one of the areas where it was claimed violence was flourishing due to high immigration, low employment rates and bad living conditions.

In 2015 alone Sweden, with a population of 9.5million, received over 160,000 asylum applications, resulting in the country closing its internal borders despite being a member of the Schengen Area, in a desperate attempt to halt the migrant influx.

The report also said children aged 12 carry weapons for older criminals and 70 cars and buildings were set on fire in an arson spate last year.

The southern city of Malmo suffered a surge of violence over the summer, as almost a 100 car fires ripped through the country’s third-largest city.

In September, police said they believed the crimes were an act of revenge following a crackdown on organised crime in the city.

Officer Erik Jansåker said: “This, in my opinion, is criminal people who are [lashing out] because of our efforts to [crack down] on the serious organised crime.”

The fires, in addition to the unprecedented levels of crime and immigration, has lead to the police across the Scandinavian country pleading for the government to grant them more resources as the force struggles to adequately police the "no-go" areas.

In October, a shocking letter sent into VLT.se by a migrant claimed the spate of car fires were carried out by asylum seekers because "racist Swedes" treated them badly.

Police in Denmark are also struggling to stop the car fire attacks with more than 200 vehicles burning out since New Year's Eve.

Those poor immigrants are just frustrated because of the lack of jobs. And those mean Swedish women won’t let them molest them.

sadly fire will be the tactic in all countries being attacked..it will move from cars to buildings and forest..

kick them out or lose your peace and country..america should too. Islam is not a religion, it is an allegiance to Satan

Keeping the blinders on. Not a single reference to the perpetrators being Muslims.

Maybe Volvo should build some halon systems in to their cars.

Left to it’s natural conclusion, it will eventually be just as hard to take back control as it was in Fallujah. You can’t have civil order and “no go” zones, they can’t coexist.

I basically passed the stage of shock and disbelief. These people who run Sweden won't listen and change. They are probably part of the worst feminist/leftists in Europe. While I am sure there are many concerned citizens there, they don't have the power to stem the tide, and much less to roll it back.

I won't be a least bit surprised that, if I mention this to them, they will accuse me of blowing things out of proportion by listening to right-wing fascists.

What gets me is that there are still Swedish who see this, and yet still favor bringing more of these animals in.

it is truly mind boggling to watch them accept more, and yet their country is going to hell.
