Denmark - Gangster Writes About Copenhagen Underground, Shot After Book Launch

The Godfather 3 was mostly forgettable in comparison to the previous two movies, and most fans agree it was only made simply to give director Francis Ford Coppola’s aspiring actor daughter, Sofia, a chance at some screen time.

Though she started directing to greater success afterward, the movie is only remembered for one famous line said by the main protagonist, the crime kingpin Michael Corleone, played by Al Pacino, who states: “Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!”

It describes how you can never leave your criminal life fully behind.

This is what Mr. Nedim Yasar, the former leader of a criminal gang in Denmark, found when he was shot dead at the age of 31 in Copenhagen yesterday.

Mr. Yasar contributed to a book about his criminal past which is published today. He just came from his own book launch party when he was shot.

The shooter fired 'at least two shots' and fled on foot according to the police. Mr. Yasar was transferred to the hospital but died of his injuries there.

He recently said that he had already been attacked earlier this year.

Yasar came to Denmark from Turkey at the age of four. According to the police, he was the head of the criminal gang Los Guerreros. He left behind his criminal life in 2012, after which he started working as a mentor with young people and started his own radio program.

“Roots”, written by Marie-Louise Toksvig, describes how Yasar wrested himself loose from the criminal environment.

The Danish Justice Minister Søren Pape Poulsen said he felt sorry for the death Of Yasar (who had been closely working with the justice department): "How sad and infinitely meaningless. I met Nedim once. I met a man who with all his heart wanted to create a new life and make a difference for others.”

"My thoughts and compassion go to his friends and family."
