Swedes Extradited to Denmark After Bombing

Published: 2024-08-10

Two Swedish citizens in their 20s have been extradited to Denmark and are now in custody following a bombing incident at a convenience store in Copenhagen.

The suspects, a man and a woman, were apprehended by Swedish police near the Öresund Bridge shortly after the attack, which involved a hand grenade.

Both deny the charges of attempted murder and possession of explosives.

The incident is part of a broader conflict involving the Danish gang 'Loyal to Familia' and an unnamed Swedish criminal network, with recent violent exchanges escalating tensions.

Danish authorities have expressed concerns about the potential for further violence.

The suspects will remain in custody until at least September 2nd, as investigations continue.
