We killed ‘Maradona’

A GANG known as ‘Los Suecos’ (The Swedes) have admitted their involvement in the brutal killing of two people on the Costa del Sol in 2018.

One of the incidents was the notorious shooting of David Avila, known by his nickname of ‘Maradona’, when he was leaving the first communion of his son.

The other took place three months later when Soufian Mohamed was gunned down outside his house in Estepona. The admission was made by the prime suspect in the case, Ahmed Abdul Karim, to Malaga Provincial court.

Thompson was subsequently arrested and had his clothes confiscated for forensic testing. Judge Tara Burns said that video footage of the two gunmen did not match up to Hutch while audio material suggested he was not in the vicinity of the Regency.

Hutch’s two co-accused, Jason Bonney and Paul Murphy, were convicted of supplying a motor vehicle to a criminal organisation - in effect acting as getaway drivers.

Continuing

Despite Hutch being cleared and the lesser convictions for Bonney and Murphy, Ireland’s Irish Justice Minister, Simon Harris, said the investigation into the killing is still ‘live and continuing’.

The rest of the defendants in the case also accepted their involvement in the killings.

The four members of the gang who are accused of carrying out the killings are facing Spain’s equivalent of life imprisonment, while four accomplices could be jailed for 12 years.
