For eight months, a group of criminals aged 15-18 robbed high school students in South Amsterdam . Five of the eleven suspects were arrested this morning.

Their victims, mostly second – and third-graders, were robbed of their iPhones, headphones, money, identification cards (ID) and clothing using with threats, extortion and violence. Ten declarations have been made. Many more are expected.

Victims were carefully selected and often repeatedly extorted and robbed. The perpetrators are of Moroccan, Surinamese and Antillean origin. Some are still at school, others are school dropouts. According to police, they operated in various ways. Their victims were sometimes told to take money with them to school, sometimes by Twitter.

“It is a classic example of extortion,” say’s Paul Bos, chief of the Investigation District Zuid. “The perpetrators instilled fear in their victims who were repeatedly robbed.”

The group was led by an eighteen-year-old boy. He too was arrested this morning. The proof against five boys is solid. More arrests are not ruled out. The boys went to work in a sophisticated way: they hung around on the Museumplein, Leidseplein and the Vondelpark and in this way made contact with the students from Zuid (South).

The police speak of a complex case. Many students from junior high schools in Zuid know the perpetrators, some of whom have been targeted in schools in or near Zuid. “The students in South had came into contact with this criminal group”, says Bos. Through these contacts, the perpetrators could easily appear at home parties of second and third graders. This happened in at least three house parties in the city, in which laptops, jewellery, iPhones, cash and clothing from guests and residents were stolen.

A thirteen -year-old second grader was extorted in school and robbed. If he did not give his money, he ‘d be thoroughly beaten up. The parents of another victim, also a thirteen year old boy, who was robbed of his money and iPhone, finally hired security men who cycled with him to school. The parents found that the police waited too long to capture the perpetrators.
