Spanish police on Wednesday, 22. January arrested a 24-year-old, american gang member, who has been internationally wanted since november last year.
There is talk about Hemin Dilshad Saleh, who is considered a leading figure of the bandegrupperingen NPV.
The 24-year-old man escaped from a psychiatric facility in Slagelse, where he was hospitalized during a pre-trial detention. Some of his friends met up to visit and had brought the cake to the coffee. However, the canning kageæsken a firearm, which the staff at the site was threatened, and fired a shot down into the floor.
Hemin Saleh and his friends quickly disappeared then from the site.
He sat in prison for a violent assault in a hair salon in Nørrebro under bandekonflikten in 2018.
- We have had a close and intensive cooperation with our colleagues in The national police in Barcelona, and the arrest of the 24-year-olds should like to send a clear signal that one should not feel safe just because you have fled to warmer climes, says the head of the Department for organised crime of the Police, Knud Hvass.
Hvass says to Ekstra Bladet, the Danish police for some time have had the feeling that Hemin Saleh stayed in Spain.
- We've had some intelligence that we have worked with. And it is the work, which has led to the result today, says Knud Hvass for the Extra Magazine.
He describes the attack on Nørrebro, as the 24-year-old is suspected to have been a leading part of, as 'extremely serious and coolly'.
A large number of persons are already sentenced in the case, where the victim was exposed to the raw violence in 18 minutes.
The 24-year-old will now become the subject of proceedings concerning extradition to Denmark. It may take a little time, informs Knud Hvass.
- If he even agrees to let himself hand over, so it will go faster. If he opposes, should be handed down a ruling by a Spanish court, and it may take some time, says Knud Hvass, which is ready to send a few cops to Spain to get the lead bandefigur home to Denmark.
When he comes back to Denmark, he again remanded in custody until the criminal proceedings against him must be settled in court.
the Police already have the four men sitting in jail in connection with the escape from the psychiatric ward. Em fifth is sifted, em released.
