Sweden introduces draconian ‘security zone’ in gang crime hotspot, giving police indiscriminate powers to search anyone
Remix ^ | JUNE 04, 2024 | THOMAS BROOKE

After a double homicide shooting earlier this week, Swedish residents in Norrköping's district of Hageby can be searched or have their vehicles searched without the need for reasonable suspicion..

Swedish police have introduced the first “stop-and-frisk-zone” in the country’s history, giving officers the power to search any individual or vehicle without the need for reasonable suspicion.

The draconian measure is in response to a double shooting on Monday evening in the Hageby residential district of Norrköping, a city southwest of Stockholm. Two men were pronounced dead at the scene.

As of Wednesday, the authorities are introducing what is also known as a security zone or visitation zone in the area as officers continue to hunt for perpetrators. A man in his 20s has already been arrested on suspicion of murder.

...

police are holding a press conference later on Tuesday to explain the new powers available to them after the law was passed in April this year to help crack down on rampant gang crime.

It is the first time the law will be implemented anywhere in Sweden.

“The aim is to increase security and make it more difficult for criminals to prepare and carry out violent crimes,” a police statement read.

Monday’s double murder was the latest in a long line of serious crime fuelled by a dramatic rise in gang warfare across the Scandinavian country in recent years.

The police were alerted to a residential apartment building in the district shortly after midnight following reports of gunshots.

“I moved here a month ago. Now, I’m already looking for an apartment elsewhere,” one resident told the SVT broadcaster.

Pauline, another resident, said she was considering installing bulletproof glass in her apartment to protect her children.

“Now I’m starting to think about whether I should put protective glass on my windows. If it’s going to keep exploding, I might have to invest in bulletproof glass, both for my kids and myself,” she said.

District prevention officers have been deployed throughout the area to provide support for residents struggling with the dramatic deterioration in security throughout their neighborhood.

“It no longer seems to come completely unexpectedly, but instead a sense of resignation spreads,” one such officer, Lilli Rubino, said.

A police report published in March this year revealed some 62,000 people in Sweden are connected to criminal gangs. To put this into perspective, consider that Sweden is a small country with only 10.4 million people.

“We are talking about system-threatening crime with a large capacity for violence that silences witnesses, threatens social workers, and infiltrates authorities and political parties,” Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer said at the time. “In the long run, the criminal networks threaten our free and open society.”

Last month, an 18-year-old Iraqi migrant was detained in Sweden on suspicion of murdering Mikael Janicki, a Polish national who was shot dead in front of his 12-year-old son as they were cycling towards a swimming pool in southern Stockholm last month.

Similarly, three Afghan nationals from the same family were arrested in Sweden on suspicion of murdering their 25-year-old female relative in an “honor killing” before burning and dumping her body in the woods.

The Swedes are become Vikings again? About damn time.

Now this kind of police power can be abused. But even abuse is better than being subjugated by the Islamist hoard.

Maybe they should just go ahead and declare war on the invaders and get the job done right. I think that's where we're all going to end up eventually, it'll be the final solution..

It's that or mud huts and slavery for whitey.. Whitey is only about 12 to 15 percent of the world population.

It’s pointless if they don’t deport the lawbreakers.

Now we know why all the immigration - so they can impose draconian rule - for our safety, of course.

1. Import third world savages.
2. Crime soars to unprecedented levels never before seen in peaceful Sweden
3. Give up basic freedoms to combat third world savages committing crimes.

There must be a better and simpler solution.

Sweden 62k (Islamic) gang members/ 10.4M people.
El Salvador (pre-Bukele) 72k (satanic Bukele told Tucker) gang members/ 6.5M people

Pre- : most dangerous country on earth. Shortly post-Bukele: safest country in hemisphere. So might be fixable if a similar fix were tried. To what did Bukele credit his success in Tucker interview? Swedes might look to their national emoji 🇸🇪! He feared civilian deaths during his planned fix. Prayed to minimize them. Results “a miracle”: 8 dead cops or military, zero civilian deaths and 90% re-elect numbers. And the 30% of his country which had fled to US wants to return! Maybe Satan feels more at home in cold Sweden and will put up a better fight, but the Swedes might try fighting back.

Draconian is the word for the gang who surrounds you and beats you, or rapes your woman, in their neighborhoods. What the police do, is to bring back civilization. The left may not understand, but might makes right is a natural law of human nature. It does not get repealed just for DEI.

Swedish woman Raped by Syrian migrant commits Suicide after prosecutor drops her case.. the young woman, Angelica Wiktor.. was trapped in her bedroom, where the Syrian raped her while his moslem pal was standing in the hall.

Despite reports, interrogation, forensic investigation which found bruising/damage caused by rape, gynaecological investigation proving the same, technicians finding evidence in my home, etc.. she received a phone call from the police on her 30th birthday that the Syrian moslem rapist was released because of lack of evidence…

His moslem friend has been haunting her since that day, looking me up online under false names, and stalking her in real life. What does the police do? – NOTHING..
