Germany's Organized Crime Evolves
A report from the Federal Criminal Police Office in Germany states that the world of organized crime is undergoing profound changes. Criminal networks have become more interconnected on both an international and digital level, with operations increasingly divided: one person plans, another is paid, and a third carries out the attack. The report highlights that criminal groups are showing a growing readiness to use violence, especially to enforce their interests and exert influence, with brutal crimes such as explosions and shootings continuing to escalate, particularly in the Cologne area during summer 2024. Additionally, the report notes the rise of the "Geno Z Mafia" phenomenon, where individuals are exposed to violent extremism through social media, with children under 13 being recruited to carry out planned and dangerous acts of violence. The number of investigations related to organized crime in 2025 increased to 683 cases, with a 13% rise in suspects. These crimes mainly focus on drugs, illicit economic activities, tax evasion, and human trafficking.
