The Black Axe - Nigeria's mafia in Germany
The Nigerian mafia has now also established itself in Germany. The members of the mafia refer to themselves as secret brotherhoods — and the largest and most dangerous of them all is "The Black Axe." The group smuggles young women to Europe in refugee boats and forces them to work off their debts as prostitutes. But why is the ruthless group so successful? And how did it manage to build such a huge network that makes millions in profits in just a few short years?
