Swedish Court Convicts Trio in Murder of Masked Hip-Hop Artist

A Swedish court has convicted three men for their roles as accessories in the murder of hip-hop artist C.Gambino, who was gunned down last year in Gothenburg.

The identity-concealing artist was killed in a suspected gang-related incident in June 2024. Defendants Hassan Rabeie, Vide Atterstam, and Fatjam Vardari have denied the charges but were sentenced due to lack of contrary evidence.

The court handed Rabeie a life sentence, while Atterstam received 15 years and six months, and Vardari got 12 years and six months. The case highlights ongoing conflicts between criminal networks, according to authorities.
