Aftonbladet, the biggest daily newspaper of Sweden published a call where it was stated that the Turkish authorities and President Recep Tayyip Erdo\u011fan among them, are making calls, at every opportunity, for Sweden to repatriate some authors, journalists, academicians, and human rights defenders living freely in Sweden by obtaining refugee status, the number of whom ranges between 33 and 130. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simultaneously with Turkey requesting Sweden to repatriate its opponents, Sweden is facing the largest organized criminal actions in its history. Almost every day comes reports of armed attacks and killings from all parts of Sweden<\/em>,” the call states*.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It is as if anyone can be killed anywhere at any time. Most of these cruel attacks are being organized by Swedish criminals now living in luxury in Turkey. These criminals have obtained Turkish citizenship and Turkey is therefore arguing that they cannot be returned to Sweden.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One such leader of a criminal gang threatening security in our country is\u00a0Rawa Majid, the leader of the criminal organization called\u00a0“Foxtrot” (with nickname Kurdish Fox). Another one organizing these crimes belongs to the group called\u00a0Bandidos <\/em>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“On the one side, Turkey claims to be fighting terrorism and requests that people who are in Sweden because of their political opinions to be returned to Turkey. On the other side, the country is rejecting to return to Sweden criminals of grave offences, people who risk the security and the future generations in Sweden.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No, this cannot go on Turkey! It is time to act like a serious state. Return the “Kurdish Fox” and the other criminal people from Sweden to Sweden.<\/em>”\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The signatories of the call:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
