The Left Wing Gang

The Blekinge Street Gang (Blekingegadebanden) was a group of left-wing extremists who performed various spectacular robberies in Copenhagen in the 1980s. The money from the robberies went to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. The group committed several robberies at banks, cash couriers and post offices and Daells Department store and stole weapons and ammunition abroad, as it kept the apartment in Blekinge. But the group really came under fire when it shot and killed the 22-year-old policeman Viral Jesper Hansen during a robbery at Kobmagergade Post Office in November 1988.
