The arrest of Ali Shehab, a top figure in the Foxtrot gang, in Iraq is seen as a breakthrough against the criminal network. Police assess that Foxtrot, Rumba, and the Dalen network have been weakened, but warn of a fragile situation where violence could flare up again. About 20 gang members remain on the police list.
