Youth violence and gang crime were the topics The debate on NRK TV on Thursday. There they talked about challenges with Swedish criminal networks that are now making themselves felt in almost all of the country’s police districts and about a culture where young people themselves do not dare to speak out about illegalities for fear of being branded as snitches.
Former Ap politician in the district of Søndre Nordstrand in Oslo, Sarah Gaulin, was one of the participants in Fredrik Solvang’s studio. She talked about how she has talked about the challenges several times and made suggestions.
She made new criticisms of the party she has now left.

Got a phone call after a Facebook post in the election campaign
At the Debate, Gaulin said that she has raised the issue of youth crime in Oslo’s districts in the Labor Party several times, but that she has felt that she has not been heard. She talked about a Facebook post she and two others shared on 11 August 2021, just before the general election. It was about a situation where stones had been thrown at the police. In the Facebook post, Gaulin made several suggestions on how the challenges could be met.
In front of presenter Fredrik Solvang, Gaulin said that the Facebook post had prompted a call from the party office.
– During election campaign times there are calls. We are told to quell that case there, said the former district politician in Ap, who has now both left the police and moved from the district.

Oslo Ap: – An important voice
The Oslo Labor Party was not represented at the Debate on Thursday, but Fredrik Solvang referred to a written response from local team leader Frode Jacobsen, which states that Sarah Gaulin has been an important voice in the local team in Søndre Nordstrand, that she has been listened to and that no one has tried to stop her.
– I felt that I was not heard. I have spoken at annual meetings, at member meetings and everywhere I can. Those who have listened to me are Jan Bøhler. Fortunately, now it is Hadia (Tajik. Editor’s note) who sits on the justice committee. But there is no one else who has listened to me, claimed Gaulin in the debate program on NRK.
Gaulin has previously appeared in the media and told about a terrifying experience at Hauketo station in the autumn. A situation where youths began to fight escalated and Gaulin witnessed the boy who was attacked jump onto the train tracks to escape the attackers. Gaulin repeated the story she has previously told about how it became uncomfortable for her herself when she – as the only one on the scene – picked up the phone and called the police.

Kripos worried about Swedish networks
Criminal networks in Sweden are active in eleven out of twelve Norwegian police districts, says Kripos chief Kristin Kvigne.
– We see the presence of Swedish criminal networks in almost all police districts, said Kvigne in Thursday’s broadcast NRK’s Debate.
Kripos has previously stated that Swedish networks have been present in six police districts. Kvigne emphasizes that Kripos has identified the Swedish Foxtrot network in these six districts.
The Foxtrot network has a central role in the gang war that has rocked Sweden recently.
– I think it is good that we have identified that they are here, because then we can make an effort, says Kvigne according to NTB.
