History
Beginnings of the Shottaz Rivalry

Dödspatrullen has been in a gang war with Shottaz [sv], another Swedish Somali criminal organization originating from Rinkeby, since 2015. This conflict has led to the death of at least nine people, with most if not all of the victims being young men/boys.[3] The start of the gang wars and rivalry, followed the robbery of a Forex in Täby on 22 July 2015, of around 2 million Swedish krona. This led to the murder of 20-year-old Ismail Aden in Bromsten by Maslah, due to bitter jealousy and anger at not having been given proceeds of the robbery, despite his organizing and planning of the robbery.[4] This later lead the revenge murder of Maslah two days later.[5] The Dödspatrullen criminal organization also murdered a leader of Shottaz, and his brother at Mynta café in Stockholm, in 2016.[6]
