Elin Eikrem

Elin Eikrem is a prominent leader at Kripos, Norway's National Criminal Investigation Service, specifically heading the Section for Organized Crime. Recently, she has been in the news for her alarming observations regarding a significant increase in violent crime assignments being advertised in Norway, particularly targeting young individuals for recruitment into serious criminal activities. Eikrem has been vocal about the shift in how these assignments are disseminated, noting a transition from closed channels to public social media platforms like Instagram and Snapchat, which has led to a troubling trend of young Norwegians being lured into violence with promises of money and status.
