Rapper Murder in Greater Lisbon Gang War
Victim was shot after party at Quinta do Mocho, in Sancavém. Settling scores between rival groups in Greater Lisbon may be at the origin of the murder. The Judiciary Police investigates.
“Jboogz”, a 24-year-old hip-hop singer from Odivelas, died in the early hours of Sunday after being shot in the Quinta do Mocho neighborhood of Sacavém. Everything indicates that the musician was the victim of a bloody fight between gangs in the suburbs of Lisbon, which glorifies violence through a branch of rap called “drill”. The abandoned Judiciary Police is investigating the possibility that this death is related to the murder of a 25-year-old man, unconscious outside the Loures Hospital, in May.
According to information collected by JN, Quinta do Mocho was, on Saturday night, the stage of a party, the “White Party”, with several DJs. Everything went well until about 6 am, when gunshots were heard. The firefighters were called to help a victim with the Firearm Saca.
