Jaguar on the loose
The other Dane on Europol’s list is Ahmad Isaac Rahma, also known as ‘The Jaguar’, for the murder and dismemberment of taxi driver Torben Vagn Knudsen in Copenhagen in 2005.

It is believed that Rahma has taken on a new identity and is living in Sudan, which does not have an extradition treaty with Denmark.

His daughter, Jasmin, was part of a singing duo who won the 2014 edition of ‘X Factor’.
