Arab refugees in sights of Berlin's crime 'clans'
[Rudaw] Berlin crime gangs of Arab origin have long earned infamy with violence and brazen robberies but now, police warn, they have targeted a new generation of refugees for recruitment.

Known in the media as Berlin's "clans", whose founders themselves fled war in Leb in the 1980s, they have long controlled much of the city's illegal drugs trade, street prostitution and protection rackets.

While East European and Asian organised crime and homegrown biker gangs are also active, the clans have been especially visible, given many members' love of gangster bling and muscle cars.
