Sweden has become the first country to face this alarming trend
According to an investigation by the STRG_F project, criminal groups in Germany are increasingly using teenagers as perpetrators. These young people are involved in arson, explosions, and even torture.
Journalists from the project met with one of the alleged organizers of such crimes in the Netherlands. This person presents himself as a "murder broker" and claims to connect clients with executors.
He stated that even children around the age of 12 are often recruited to carry out contract killings and explosions. The rewards for such actions are minimal, and often the perpetrators agree to work without payment. "Sometimes they literally beg to be given the chance to carry out the task. It's just terrible and hard to comprehend," the interviewee noted.
The investigation emphasizes that most often it concerns youth with a migration background.
The authors of the material compare this practice to the use of "child soldiers" in conflict zones in Africa, highlighting that such methods are beginning to gain popularity in Europe as well.
According to the journalists, the first alarming signals came from cases in Sweden, and now this problem is spreading to other countries.
