Police smashed blackmail network: threats of murder and rolex robbery in Berlin!

In a shocking police operation, five apartments in Berlin were searched today, including in Hakenfelde, Buckow, Neukölln and Tempelhof. The investigation by the public prosecutor is directed against several accused who are targeted due to attempted predatory extortion. At the center of the scandal is a 43-year-old businessman who had paid 95,000 euros for construction work. The two 44-year-old twin brothers, who act as a silent partner of the company, accused him of wanting to offset these payments with bills, and have put him under pressure with fatal threats since June.

In addition, a 37-year-old and a 29-year-old accomplice tried to blackmail the businessman in April 2025 by threatening him with death and a planned killing. Podored costs of 30,000 euros for the supposed murder order should be replaced. During the searches, the police found shocking evidence: from electronic data carriers to a shotgun, machete, stab protection vest to a fake identity and a high-quality Rolex watch. Arrests have not yet been made, the investigation continues.
