Det pågår en del diskussioner om att Jimmie Åkesson (SD) har festat ihop med Robert Hedarv. Hedarv är president för Skånes avdelning av MC-gänget Comanches, som av många bedöms vara arvtagare till det tidigare MC-gänget Satudarah. Satudarah har varit inblandade i gängkrig i Danmark.

– Han var med i Bandidos Malmö när de fanns, han har varit kopplad till Rock Machine MC som också är en klubb i enprocents-miljön. Han har även varit medlem i La Familia.
– När han blev kontrollerad av polis under tiden i La Familia gjorde man bedömningen att han hade en internationellt högt uppsatt position i klubben. Så det är en person som varit engagerad i den här miljön under en längre period.
[...]
– Om man tittar på dagens Comanches-medlemmar så är de dömda för ganska grova brott. Bland annat grova vapenbrott, utpressningar och narkotikabrott – så det finns ett våldskapital.

Citat:
Passed in 1970, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization (RICO) Act aimed to take down organized crime organizations. Prior to the enactment of the RICO Act, prosecutors only had the ability to individually try crime that was mob-related. A different mob member would be prosecuted for a particular crime, but prosecutors could not take down the whole criminal organization at once.
The RICO Act gave prosecutors the ability to do this. However, now prosecutors do not just use RICO in mob prosecutions but have also utilized the law to prosecute everything, from street gangs to politicians.

9-110.100 - Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO)
On October 15, 1970, the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970 became law. Title IX of the Act is the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Statute (18 U.S.C. §§ 1961-1968), commonly referred to as the "RICO" statute. The purpose of the RICO statute is "the elimination of the infiltration of organized crime and racketeering into legitimate organizations operating in interstate commerce." S.Rep. No. 617, 91st Cong., 1st Sess. 76 (1969). However, the statute is sufficiently broad to encompass illegal activities relating to any enterprise affecting interstate or foreign commerce.
Section 1961(10) of Title 18 provides that the Attorney General may designate any department or agency to conduct investigations authorized by the RICO statute and such department or agency may use the investigative provisions of the statute or the investigative power of such department or agency otherwise conferred by law. Absent a specific designation by the Attorney General, jurisdiction to conduct investigations for violations of 18 U.S.C. § 1962 lies with the agency having jurisdiction over the violations constituting the pattern of racketeering activity listed in 18 U.S.C. § 1961.
