Rapper Sentenced for Murder Plot – Central in Gang Conflict

The young rappers emerged as enforcers for the Foxtrot and Dalennätverket networks during a major wave of violence. Now, one of them – 20-year-old Prince Kamara, known by his stage name 'Hezzy' – is central to a gang conflict and instrumental in an attempted murder against a rival rapper. He has now been sentenced to four years and nine months in prison.

Previously described as a 'runner' for the Dalennätverket, Kamara was involved in the initial wave of violence in Stockholm in 2023. Today, the 20-year-old rapper, who has gained a larger audience with his violent lyrics, is identified as a key figure in the ongoing gang conflict between the Foxtrot and Dalennätverket networks.

Rapper Sentenced

In May, the Salem rapper was charged with ordering two people – a 15-year-old and a 26-year-old – to carry out a murder alongside an 18-year-old man. The target was a rival 19-year-old rapper from Fruängen with ties to the Foxtrot network, and his brother.

According to the indictment, they instructed the 15-year-old in December 2024 to travel from western Sweden to Stockholm to participate in the murder attempt. However, the mission failed.

Police had been monitoring several of the suspects and managed to arrest three of them in an apartment in Södertälje during the New Year holiday before the act was carried out. During a search, police found cash, a bulletproof vest, and cannabis.

Now, three of the five accused men have been convicted in Södertälje District Court for their involvement in the murder attempt. Prince Kamara is sentenced to four years and nine months in prison for conspiracy to murder and involving a minor in criminal activity. The 18-year-old is sentenced to 1.5 years of closed juvenile care for the same crime. The 15-year-old is sentenced to nine months of juvenile supervision for conspiracy to murder.

'Enough to Draw Conclusions'

In the verdict, Södertälje District Court concluded that the murder plans had progressed relatively far and were part of a crime committed within the framework of network criminality, which affected the length of the sentences.

– The evidence in the case mainly consisted of chat conversations found on the defendants' phones. The court has therefore examined whether the defendants can be linked to the chat aliases claimed by the prosecutor and whether the content of the conversations and other circumstantial evidence were sufficient to draw conclusions about their involvement in the murder plans, instigation, and undertaking, says Judge Nina Stubbe, the court's chair.

The investigation includes intercepted communications and chats where the mission is planned. It mentions, among other things, that a person should be 'japped', slang for killed, for a price tag of 200,000 kronor.

In the chats, Prince Kamara sends a picture of the target and an address. According to the investigation, the mission reads: 'Drive all the way out, shuno should not breathe,' is written in the chat.

The investigation also includes chats mentioning that Rawa Majid 'pays out insane sums for assignments.'

Evidence: Rapper's Lyrics

In the investigation, the police also relied on another type of evidence: Prince Kamara's lyrics as 'Hezzy', where he raps about shootings and mocks victims in recent years' wave of violence.

During the trial, the prosecutor also emphasized the music as part of the conflict, where the opposing side also expresses themselves provocatively in their lyrics.

During the investigation, Prince Kamara, along with all the accused, denied the crime. In police interrogations, he consistently answered 'no comments' to police questions.

Expressen has previously depicted how several young rappers emerged as enforcers for the Foxtrot and Dalennätverket networks, where among others Mikael 'Greken' Tenezoz is one of the leaders, in the major wave of violence.

Today, they themselves are responsible for the violence in Stockholm's southern suburbs.

– This is not entertainment, it is a war tool they are dealing with, Ida Corelli of the Södertälje police, who is an investigator in several acts linked to these groups, previously told Expressen.

Gangster rappers like Prince 'Hezzy' Kamara from Salem, the 19-year-old target from Fruängen, and a 21-year-old man from Farsta have become front figures in a conflict between two criminal constellations involving several murders, attempted murders of parents, and presumed misfires.

Was Target – Own Father Shot

Prince Kamara has previously been linked to several other acts, including an attempted bombing in March 2023 at a business premises in Årsta belonging to the internationally wanted gang member Ismail Abdo.

Prince Kamara, who was then 17 years old, was acquitted in the Court of Appeal after first being convicted in the District Court.

Shortly after a rapper on the opposing side was shot dead at Mälarhöjdens IP in September, he mocked the 18-year-old victim – including in the song 'Ready 4 war', where he raps 'the way we did XX, wallah, it's catty.'

A clip on social media is said to have escalated tensions between the rival groups.

At the same time, the now 20-year-old Prince Kamara himself has been a target of several acts of violence. During a shooting, his father was hit instead, who survived.

In May 2024, he was again a target in a misfire in another act orchestrated by Foxtrot.

After the high-profile act in early March 2025 – when 16-year-old Rio Berg Aygün was shot dead at a pedestrian tunnel in Fruängen – there was full activity on social media accounts linked to Prince 'Hezzy' Kamara's side of the conflict shortly after.

The posts could, according to the police, be interpreted as taking responsibility for the shooting.

At the same time, Fruängen's 19-year-old local gangster rapper wrote upset and threatening posts on Instagram: 'Civilians don't count.'

Prince Kamara has been detained since the beginning of the year.

In conversations between him and the now convicted 18-year-old accomplice, they chat about 'Hezzy' having a significant threat against him.

In the thread, Prince Kamara also shows a screenshot where they write that Foxtrot leader Rawa Majid, called the Kurdish Fox, has put a price of over one to two million on his head.

In December 2024, it was spread on TikTok, in comment fields, that Prince Kamara was dead or would be killed in February.

The 18-year-old asked him to leave the country as he would have difficulty surviving as a rapper, public figure, and because he is a 'Young boss.'

Expressen has sought Prince Kamara's lawyer for a comment.
