two weeks ago, the border police at a villa in Bromsten in Spånga, where seven persons were recovered and expelled with the support of the aliens act. In the villa were found, including drugs, false identity documents and stolen goods in the form of bikes and expensive tools.

the Raid was a part of the border police in Stockholm’s new strategy where it attempts to access brottsnätverken and the people who enable criminal activity by renting out the villas in residential areas.

” We understand that we need to access those networks in a different way than to just examine all of the individual crimes, for when we get rid of some of these people will the new. The idea is that we go up a step up in the chain and makes it a pain for the hosts, ” says Monica Krüger.

the border police recently struck at an address in Sollentuna. In the two cases are ongoing investigations against the hosts. It is through a collaboration with the municipality and the emergency services as the border police can also work for the prosecution of Swedish citizens suspected of illegal hotel operations.

– It is the municipality that has the responsibility to keep track of the activities are not carried out the hotel business in the premises which are not intended or approved for it. They are important actors to contribute to shutting down these places.

” the Police have visited many such homes in the past, but then maybe we have entered a villa in which there are 20-25 people and would not have been prepared to handle so many. Now we are testing a new approach, mobilizing and attacking on several fronts. We’ll see how it goes and if we will introduce it as a method.

in Stockholm, about 70 addresses where you suspect that there is svarthotell and the proceeds of criminal activity.

” We try as much as possible and look at the addresses that are most current, but we do not have the opportunity to strike against all of the addresses. We go into where we think that we get the best results, ” says Monica Krüger.

It is often through a tip from neighbors that the police can start an investigation in order to eventually be able to implement a crackdown. Monica Krüger therefore calls on the residents who suspect that this type of activity going on in the neighborhood to hear the police and the municipality.

After the raid, was it just new people that moved in.

” But just because there are 20 people in a villa, it does not need to act on illegal hotel operations, for example, there may be a construction worker who is temporarily received permission to stay there.

with lives next door to the villa in Bromsten where the police carried out a crackdown two weeks ago. The reader says that the problems began in February, and that the accommodation in the area is experiencing the situation as precarious.

” the Farm has been full of garbage and it has eldats with high flames several times. The surrounding streets have been full of cars and made it difficult for us to park. After the raid, was it just new people that moved in. We live with constant anxiety, wondering what happens next.

illegal hotelier is fined, but the police also believe that the Tax agency can get to being interested in the cases where the hosts have not paid tax on the income from the illegal hotel operations.

It can hit much harder against the hosts if the Tax authority requires the check to the unpaid tax. Police believe that in the long run, can lead to that the hosts can’t continue to operate the hotel business.

They use the also the people who often come here and live in difficult conditions.

” the Idea is to choke off the supply and make it difficult for them to continue renting it out. They exploit the people who come here and live under difficult conditions and may rent a mattress for 100 sek a night. But even if it is a relatively cheap accommodation often end up in debt and start committing crimes to pay off.

the border police require 500 new employees: ”the Position is serious.”
