Foxtrot Network

The Foxtrot Network is an international crime gang reportedly linked to the Iranian government. This organization has recently gained notoriety due to the conviction of a Norwegian teenager, Johannes Kongsnes Natland, who was found guilty of traveling to the UK to carry out a contract killing. Natland, aged 19, was recruited by a Swedish organized crime group allegedly acting on behalf of the Iranian government. He was arrested in March of last year in a Huddersfield hotel room, found in possession of firearms and ammunition, with the intention of committing murder for a sum of €25,000. The case highlights the alleged involvement of state actors in directing criminal activities abroad, specifically contract killings, underscoring the group's current relevance and the significant geopolitical implications of their operations.
