These Thieves Are RUINING European Cities (Madrid pt 1)

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2024
- Whether it's London, Barcelona, Rome, or Madrid - we've always been told to watch out for pickpockets or scams. So when I saw there was a group of brave Spaniards protecting their city and exposing these criminals, I just had to see if I could help them out. So I joined Patrulla Madrid in the mean streets of Madrid to expose these criminal clans lurking in our European cities.

Adventure Elliot is a bilingual travel vlogger (English and Spanish) with a particular interest in the Spanish speaking world. I enjoy taking adventures - big or small - and my goal is to show the Spanish speaking world 1 video at a time.
The goal of my channel is simple yet complex: I want to document and share authentic & educational content of anything related to Adventure Travel, Geography, & Language in the Spanish-speaking world. It's kind of a loaded topic, but it allows me to never exhaust my creative outlets. The truth is, I've always been extremely passionate about what I'm doing on my channel, but I never properly documented it when I started adventuring as a younger man in my college years. I've made over 150 TH-cam videos in both English and Spanish, and I have aspirations to make 1000s more. If that sounds interesting to you, join the community and follow me along the way.. After all, we're just getting started.

This looks fun. How do I come join the team?
hey Elliot. as all of america is watching this, maybe one of your stupid followers can remind you that there is much more worse shit happening in the USA and you aint there to help. why is that? is it that you maybe feel more comfy to harass people who wont shoot you in the face? could it be that? ahahahahhaa. what kind of a moron goes to foreign places and tells people to go back where they came from, checking them for ID. the American Karen moron type of person. btw the people joining you also happen to not know what xenophobia means. would ask you to teach them as you are a pro, but................ so fucking dumb xD xD
@AdventureElliot You are a bully with no spine to pick on women, whatever circumstances! Easy target, hero?
Why do my comments always get erased here? It has happened many times before! 😬Or is it TH-cam who removes them?
In the UK we would get arrested for harrassing them and they would be let go, it is a crazy world we live in today.
In the West, the government protects the immigrant invaders.
when i see them in my home town birmingham they beg and scam even though they're british citizens exactly like myself they receive same governmental financial support like i do but i confront them
Same here in the USA
Western governments are doing it on purpose, to destabilise society. They constantly letting criminals out on the streets on purpose. Happy, secure, prosperous, stress free citizens are a lot harder to brainwash and control. With safe & effective. And with hating other countries as an "enemy" that they picked fight with FIRST instead of looking closer to home. And demanding change !!
Pick pockets have the right to defend its fingers
As a Romanian citizen, I am genuinely ashamed that the name of our country is represented by such individuals... The initiative is an excellent one; please continue to draw attention on these people. Great job!
You don't have to apologise what vile people do just because they are from your same country of origin.
Just make sure you shame and expose them every chance you can.
Romanians are great immigrants mate. I have met countless across Spain. They work very hard and speak both Spanish and English. These particular ones don’t represent Romanians but the truth is that they had Romanian IDs and if the EU allows it, more will continue to keep doing this, and it’s a shame.
Many people in our country don’t know the difference between Romanians and Romas. That’s how Romania’s reputation goes downhill.
@@danziger9996 The same happens in Spain. People mistake good hard working and respectable Romanians with gypsies. And the truth is there is little in common. Two very different ethnicities and social behaviour.
Unfortunately people mistake the two as the same and specially tourist who become victim to the latter, don't know that they were robbed, mugged or assulted by gypsies but mistake them for Romanians, other east Europeans or even spaniards.
The laws of the land make it easy for these people to literally get away with murder. And they take advantage of it along with the hapless lack of distinction form the tourist.
Don't be ashamed, we know 99.999% of Romanians are lovely people. Every society has its criminal. Romania is a beautiful country with very hospitable people❤ and culture.
I think all European cities with serious thefts should have this group of "thief-revealing teams" so that tourists can travel with peace of mind.
it's not just a team, it's a family
Great idea. Should work with interpol.
I would pay.
serious thefts you don't know them, if u know them, probably they are arrested eheh :)
You can. You can go into any neighborhood you want and document crime any time you want. If there is a vocal, politically active team of 15-20 people in 1 neighborhood, constantly filming, those people will eventually be arrested. You go to the schools, you get other youth involved.
Thank you for what you're doing! My husband and I saw an old guy while waiting at a train station in Florence being pickpocketed by another elder guy who had a sling in his one arm. Being tourists, my husband's first time in Italy at that time, he never thought a seemingly disabled guy in a suit wearing with a necktie was actually a thief. We couldn't warn the victim because apparently we heard these thieves could follow you and attack. We felt helpless. A lot of the thieves are gypsies, some carrying babies, and pretending to ask for alms. Since finding out about pickpocketers in Europe, we start scanning our passport and important travel documents and emailing to ourselves, making a few copies that we put separately in several bags and luggage. We put our wallets and passports in a flat pouch wrapped around the body (not hanging like a necklace) and tucked under our shirts. If we need to pay, we would use our jackets or sweaters or our bodies as cover to discretely get our money or credit card. We also prefer to use less cash instead just 2 credit cards that we can cancel anytime if it's stolen. We just carry backpacks to put snacks and water and maybe medicines. Europe is beautiful but we also need to be extra careful and be aware of our surroundings and always be alert while enjoying the sights.
That’s wild that you have to do all these things before going out when it shouldn’t be like that! We should feel safe and free when we go out without worrying about all these stuff it’s crazy 😢
I live in the US, but when starting my travels, Europe has never been in my country for tours! I’ll start from my continent Africa, and Asia! I know they’re pickpockets everywhere but Europe ain’t my cup of tea lol😂
Beautiful or not who wants to go through all of this just to prevent being a victim of someone pickpocketing your belongings.
your in public on a trainstation and your gonna let someone steal from a elderly man without doing or saying anything. you are as guilty as the pickpocketer
Wouldn't go to Europe. Get your shit together.
These are criminally gangs not petty thieves.
She says don’t touch her, yet she touches everyone’s pockets!! Get ppl to pick pocket them to see how much they robbed from tourist!
They are using every right as a woman to their advantage and then stragically play victim when it goes wrong
Exactly !🤣🤣🤣🤣
indeed! 🤣🤣🤣
@@Kureci_kridylka_Nikki pickpocket pickpockets
He should say, don't touch or steal other people's property.
Good job, I was in Madrid in the recent past with my daughter. my wallet was Pick pocketed on the train from the airport and I lost almost $900 - citizens need to complain and politicians need to change the law. Keep up the good work.
omg! :O
Sorry that happened to you guys. We are sick and tired of these gypsies and we want them back in their eastern countries. But there's no political will since politicians don't live this multicultural "enriching" experience.
Lived in Barcelona & visited Madrid. I’m English. 🏴
Part of the problem is they pick on tourists who will not stay for any court case. Can cost thousands to get back & forth.
Unfortunately, because of this, they can carry on.
👍🏼
7:10 she said she needs money for food looks like she never missed a meal 😂😂
Zou change the law but you can't change the gypsies.
My elderly father took a trip to France and they stole his wallet and badge that he always carried with him. He was devastated, these people are monsters.
Yes, they are everywhere scattered in Europe, my husband was a victim of pickpocketers in Athens. And I was a victim of taxi scam in Rome. Thank you for people like you protecting tourists. Now we know how they do it.
They are gypsy who lives in Romania, not romanians which is a huge difference. If they live in Italy for 30 years and steal in the UK, I can’t call them italians, but gypsy citizens from Italy.
@@Moniq29uk yes thank you, I know, I never said they are from whichever country, my point is, I have experienced it and they are everywhere, tourists should know!
The nerve of them to say "don't touch" but have no problem touching others to steal stuff from them.
Because they very smart they know police protect them when they pregnant they even can’t touch them,so they use the strategy for yelling “ don’t touch me
The worse people of Europe 🌍 how can these creatures be in Europe 😢
Defending women's rights
@KaltrinaDemiri, did you see them stealing anything, because I did not. Did we see this TH-camr and his associates harassing them, yes we did. Proof matters
@@newmankidman5763 The people in this video we were told are pickpockets have been previously arrested on that charge and fined. They were initially photographed upon being arrested - that’s how they were able to be identified for this video.
Mug shots here in the states are accessible by the general public, too. A good example is how the faces of registered sex offenders is circulated in any neighborhood they move to so people can identify those perpetrators and avoid them.
Same principle.
You’ll note how many of the women were wearing sunglasses on an overcast day, and several covered their heads (I presume these are the more notorious ones). The scarf head coverings aren’t just a disguise: they’re meant to fool people into thinking they are modest, circumspect, God-fearing individuals - so when you’re “bumped” by them, rather than being suspicious, you’ll feel bad.
I can’t imagine why you’re worried for their rights: two of the women were laughing about being identified - they truly have no conscience. They have no compunction stealing from anyone oblivious to their activities - and they don’t give a hoot whether they ruin your once-in-a-lifetime vacation.
The Roma (otherwise known as gypsies) are hugely predatory to those outside their culture - who they view as dogs. The reason gypsies were nomadic is because after they’d prey upon a village, they were cast out and compelled to move elsewhere to find a fresh unsuspecting population.
As you saw, they use a similar technique today: they travel from afar into popular destinations to find victims. If they’re caught, they’re unlikely to suffer a penalty because they try to target tourists vs. locals, and they’re long gone by the time a victim discovers their money, phones, jewelry, etc. has been lifted.
The police don’t bother cause it’s less than €400 but they’ll bust your b*lls off for a €100 speeding ticket. The legal system is marvellous 🤦
Or for having 0,02 GRAMS of WHATEVER-INE, for your personal use, in your pocket!!
Loud exhausts on cars and teens/students smoking weed is more dangerous than pickpockets for police in Europe🤣
Country run by selfish asshol# law makers.
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way) don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
First of all, if you have any questions regarding Islam and yourself, just open the Quran randomly, and you will find the answer in front of you, like a miracle and a sign from God.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..
God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.”
(2:136 / Translated by Community)
Salam (Peace) -------------------
Yes it’s the same in Denmark….
Thank you volunteers ! appreciate your efforts to make tourists safe. take care always.
as tour guide from indonesia, i really appreciate this activist movement, i was many times coming to espana, especially to madrid and barcelona and always scary about these pickpocket, and concern for my guest safety, thx so much 🙏🙏 please do this regulary everyday.
The tour guide saying they were pickpockets like an attraction was GOLD!
Lol. Loved it.
timestamp? - nvm 18:20
It's part of the experience.
He's one of the guys from the group interviewed at the start - the one who broke his patella.
She has the audacity to say “Don’t touch”, but she is touching others pockets!!
do you have audacity? living and enjoying your luxury stolen from mouths of poor nations?
Can't touch this! Dah na na na! Can't touch this! Da na na na, Hammer time!
why not ? your politicants alowed to them , is this work for police , not on some youtuber . That isnt happening by accident ,
Did you see how mad she got when HER hat was stolen.
She didn't like that.
That's what sociopaths do. The guilty yell the loudest.
This guy has balls! Good man. Three cheers for crime-stoppers like you.
This is great news! I'm so happy to see this video. In 2009 my girlfriend got her very full handbag stolen. It was loaded. Let's just say the thieves got away with a treasure bag. Till today I still remember the face of the guy that distracted me. He was around 5' 10" - heavy set, with facial hairs and shades. So this is a good move. Thanks to you all.
once in the streets of amsterdam one guy was helpless and almost cried because he lost his money and passport so he couldnt go back to his country and he came from a poor country saved money to discover i hope he find his way back to home . This people are disgusting people they dont care about you .
Passport problem, you go to your country's embassy!
@@Ruitraceur yes we talked about it i gave him the location of the embassy but still he has no money and its a whole process where he gonna sleep in this process its all bs because of one pickpocket loser
@@Ruitraceur It's not that easy and it's not free.
He lost them, or you meant to say they were "stolen"?...the two situations are not the same.
@@markrobby7136 you can see in my reaction that i say '' because of picpocket losers '' they stole it from him it was in his bag.
My wife was victim to pickpockets in Cinque Terre in Italy. It was a group of 5 or 6 pretty young girls, well dressed and posing as tourists. It soured our holiday.
This kind of people are stiling.
Gypsies can smell and see the stupid liberals.
No doubt, they would have tricked me too.
So sorry about this
Sorry😢😢
Sir. You are doing the world a great service. As someone like European cities and travel to Europe. We thank you..
Wow, I only discovered the video by chance. Your work is so important! If there were brave people like you in every big city, these thieves would have no chance of surviving and would stop because of the negative effects. Thank you for your work!!!
This is how all influencers should earn their money! Actually helping the citizens with these scammers. You’ve earned a subscriber my friend, keep doing the good work 😊
Muslims are a threat everywhere and it's getting worse day by day
De preferencia persiguiendo a machos robustos de su tamaño en vez mujeres guapas y fragiles.
Ditto.
Elliot does more for Madrid than the Police. Bravo amigo! 👏🏻
🫡
#34 is Elensky!?!?!?
Of course he does more. The police in every western European country are for "multiculturalism".
Spanish police is crap
Bullying people is Not the way !
Great video and thank you for exposing them. I was last in Paris, Rome and Madrid in 2012 and experienced firsthand these disgusting vile “human beings” trying to rob in Paris. Luckily my sister figured it out when a “supposed deaf person” tried getting money from us pretending to work for a Deaf charity. We managed to get away and a few hours later saw the same ppl TALKING to their pimp! Fortunately the police were ready and waiting and took them away. It’s unbelievable how much worse it’s gotten since then.
We are having problems here in Hawaii with a Romania group selling fake jewelry to the elderly in the Asian community. They were dormant for a while and have recently started their activities again. Thank you to Patrulla Madrid for their efforts in making it safe to travel.
It is quite likely they are not Romanian, but so called "people of color" with Romanian passports
We were in Madrid a month ago, and we wanted to go to the center. The front desk of the hotel said that we should be very careful because Madrid is notorious for pickpockets.
Son mafias, q vienen de países del Este, q vienen exclusivamente de esto.
#34 is Elensky!?!?!?
Italy too. They send out children in packs of 3…asking directions. They work fast.
My parents went to Lloret De Mar in October 2023. More than 87 thefts in less than 6 days.
Italy subways too…my sister nearly get her wallet pickpocket luckily my mum slap the scumbag hands.
My wife and I visited 5 Spanish cities in March including Madrid and Barcelona. We took all the precautions to avoid a Carterista encounter as we stayed aware of our surroundings at all times. One creepy dude quit following us when I stopped, turned towards him and looked him straight in the eyes to let him know we were on to him. It’s quite a problem in Barcelona too. Great video!
They are from Eastern Europe, now they barely have robberies there
Gran video Elliot!!! Excelente trabajo!!!😘😘
been in barcelona and is full of prostitutes valencia in other hand is a true paradise and underrated .
Totally agree about scammers in Barcelona! Also, it was very sad to speak with some Spaniards who told us they had to resort to begging and prostitution to survive.
@@user-bm8cl6mc9o In Barcelona there are no Spaniard beggars or prostitutes, troll, you are either South American or British or Romanian. Although I would bet on the third
"This is your setence. I sentence you to the chair." This was brutal 🤣🤣🤣
U guys are doing amazing job by exposing them .keep up the good work so that the tourists could get aware of these people
I was pickpocketed at a railway station in Rome. The joke was on them as my purse had no money in it.
Legend. 😂😂😂😂
I also was pickpocketed in the Rome train station. I caught the young girl that did it but the police would not arrest her. I think they pay off the police. She was working with another girl and followed me right on the train and tried to pass me in the aisle when I felt a tickle in my pocket. She froze when I grabbed her and then she dropped the wallet. Don’t carry your wallet in your pocket, stick it down your underwear. Rome is nothing but crooks.
My purse was slashed, but they didn’t get anything as my money was in a pocket closest to my body. Now I carry Travelon bags. They lock and are difficult to open. We are going to Rome in July. My husband is going to carry one as well.
😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉
😂
Telling people in the train not to sit next them, the embarrassment those thieves must’ve felt 😂😂😂
Unfortunately this type of person feels no embarrassment otherwise they wouldn't do it
Thats a word they dont know.
Haha no bro, they don't have it. Just think the woman in the video doesn't even feel ashamed or embarrassed to teach her daughter that criminal life
They are only concerned that the attention will hurt their business. They're shameless.
Compremos mi hulas antirrobo
We have a lot of the same girls from ROMANIA in Paris.
8:37 when i heard my country’s name, Bulgaria, i felt genuine shame. As a Bulgarian i truly do apologies that my country is a part of this absolute mess. 😢 However, im very grateful for people like you, looking out for tourists and locals. Thank you for everything you’re doing. Keep up the great work!🙏🏽
Hey there, one or few people can’t define the whole nation. Don’t be embarrassed or ashamed of other’s bad behavior. It exists in every country and society. Give yourself a break.
Same situation in Rome - Italy.
You joking right? The same Rome who done exactly the same thing to other European countries many years ago? Really? Isn’t that called karma?? 🤫🤫🤫
@@section5760what are you talking about?
@carmenvalmalaartaraz8260 probably about Roman Empire looting other European States OR maybe referring to World War IIs "Pact of Steel" between Italy and Germany
I am baffled by how out of context these messages are.
Same in London UK 🇬🇧 too bro. These same types park up on Tower Bridge & do 3 card monty scams as well as pick pocketing. There's loadsa vids on YT of these types doing their scams, they carry squares of carpet around with them to drop on the bridge then they bet on you choosing where the pea or whatever it is after they've moved it around under a cup, and they have people who they know/who are on their team, who'll bet and win just to make other people that they don't know, feel confident to bet. And there's no way to win legitimately because they use slight of hand to remove the pea in the first place, so there's no pea under the cup at all when you play!! So no way to win. If that makes sense.
I had a friend, she said she was going to Barcelona. I said, " you will get your bag stolen!". And she did.
😮😮😮😢
Been all over Europe and had no problems .They must know you are coming from miles out 😮😅.English are not wanted in most of Europe btw
@rossib6974 only when they are at war then?
@@limpetheadNah. They are useless these days even in that department. 😅 As the war in Ukraine clearly showed/shows.
My younger bro was working in the Virginia during the summer of 2017. As a pool guard. After only a day or two his smartphone was stolen... And we are from the southeastern Europe. At least earned some nice money, got a better phone, visited Washington DC, White House, professional baseball game, Philadelphia, NYC. Then when he returned back to Europe, he traveled with his girl friend to Poland, North Italy ski resorts and Barcelona. No problems what so ever. But in the USA someone snatched his smartphone like a flash!
You saved a lot of innocent people from losing their money and jewelry that day. That is very good work❤.
I live in Paris and have never been robbed by pickpockets. I grew up near Detroit, Michigan and am always vigilant. My French husband , on the other hand, has had his sunglasses removed from his head and lost other things.
No one comes within a few feet of me, without my watching them.
Took my mother on the Metro in Paris about 20 years ago, and told her to keep her purse in front of and her hand firmly on it. Then noticed this kids dancing around her, as she stood and screamed, in English, "Thieves on the train", because my mother's zipper was half open.
They jumped off at the next stop , but someone managed to grab the backpack off of one of them.
These were CHILDREN around 10, 8 and 4. They are trained young!
I was in Madrid 10 years ago with my niece and three young girls tried to pickpocket my niece, i was walking a few feet away from her and I saw them, I was carrying an umbrella with long handle, so I hit them with my umbrella telling them to leave us alone. They say those girls were gypsies.
10+ years ago, met the same group twice in the Madrid metro within 2 weeks.
Same gypsies are out here in Los Angeles asking for money in intersections
Poor your niece and poor those children… their parents or traffickers forced them into this life of crime.

Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..
God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.”

I've never seen Roma enter a shop to buy, only to steal.
I propose that those caught stealing should be banned from entering the respective country for at least 5 years....
For life,
Once you expose urself ur out,
Just like in a job,
If you steal ur out for good, not 5 years & cum back to do the same .
No, not 5 years, a permanent ban!!
Yeah send them home who want these fucks in their country.
They will just move from one county to another, jail time is the way, it's stealing after all
Don't propose anything! You don't have the rights!
Only they have rights.
Awesome job! Thank you for warning people about these scammers and thieves. Keep exposing them 💪🏻
Great work my boy. You guys are working tirelessly voluntarily
20 years ago in Madrid i saw a businessman smartly dressed at the train station. I then saw him crawling up behind someone sitting on a bench and he tried to reach around and steal a ladies purse that was next to her. She noticed and he ran away.
They've been doing it for years.
My wife and I boarded a tram in Rome after arriving from the airport. The tram wasn't crowded, but a gypsy holding a baby was standing suspiciously close to my wife. I approached the gypsy and peered under her baby. The gypsy was holding my wife's pink purse. I made a commotion and the gypsy dropped the purse. I picked it up. The gypsy alighted at the next stop. That was enough to alert me of this danger. I now keep my wallet in my front pocket with a cord attached to a loop I have installed in the right pocket of all of my trousers.
And with They, we all know who it is, gypsies.
I think much much longer than that. Perhaps hundreds of years.
Sis was sat eating lunch with her handbag on the floor. She sensed a movement and found a woman crawling under the table. She picked this woman up by her coat collar, and gave her a mouthful. The woman grizzled pathetically.
You should research dates of the anti-Gypsy laws in European countries.
i know most people think "Well they'll just get a slap on the wrist and go back to their nasty ways once the police let them go"
but you have to understand these types of uploads really do have a wider knock-on effect; they raise awareness, they make thieves think twice before moving abroad, and it's give the govt a kick up the backside to get policy in place to have these people get some actual time behind bars. So good on Elliot for this.
Part 2 from Barcelona coming soon
You're daydreaming. It's getting worse every year so far
I mean, i get the point you're trying to make, and i'm all for shaming criminals (providing it's done legally). But there are a number of things wrong here being done by the group. This Spanish group is not representative or elected to serve the Spanish public. They quite literally take it up on themselves to serve what they regard as justice. What they are doing in this clip would be regarded as harassment. At no stage do you actually ever see these ladies pickpocket or do anything illegal. Yet the camera crew and local Spanish group follow these ladies around for 3 hours whistling next to them, advising companies not to serve them, shaming them publicly, following them all around the city and on public transport. They are also well aware that the Spanish police (the authorities) attempt to deal with the situation, and then quite literally wait for the police to go and then follow the ladies again. This is the very definition of harassment. They have no power, what they are doing would be regarded as illegal in the UK also.
It can be exhausting to stay alert against pickpockets while travelling Europe. There are no violent crimes but losing passport or smartphone can ruin your trip. I almost lost my smartphone in Madrid. Way to go Elliot! Stay safe.
Awesome job!!! Thank you for doing this. ❤
I took a 3-month solo trip to Europe in the mid-80s and all the English speaking tourists of all ages I talked to for more than five minutes would eventually bring up their story of having had something stolen: wallet, purse, camera, or suitcase. The number of victims was absolutely shocking. They always brought the subject up as a warning to me once they realized I was a female solo traveler. I was extremely thankful for the warnings and exceptionally lucky as I had a couple of close encounters with large groups of thieves but never became a victim. Keep up the good work!
Gentlemen,you are doing a great service for everyone.I was robbed in Toulouse last year,was a truamatic experience.Airport police so helpful.Delighted they caught the thieves who spent 3months in prison.Keep up the good work.I want to visit Madrid.

I went to Madrid in 2005 and saw pickpockets everywhere. It was typically small groups of young men then, but I was there for a week and a half and saw it at least once per day every single day. I’m glad they are being called out here.
I have traveled all over Europe and haven’t seen such concentrated cases of theft like I saw it in Madrid.
This is good fun dude! 🤘
As a tourist, I was mugged in Paris in metro station by a guy offering help to buy ticket.
I went to Rome in the early 90s and saw a gang of pick pockets. An elderly man in our group (a vicar wearing his white collar!) had taken traveller’s cheques for spending money and didn’t want to leave it in the hotel so took it out with him and it was stolen. He knew the woman had taken it and confronted her. She’d already passed it on so she lifted her top exposing her tits to prove she hadn’t got it. The poor vicar went purple, which was her objective, cocky bitch. I felt so sorry for the elderly vicar and his wife. We tried to chase the gang so we could tell the police where they went but they split up and disappeared. B@stards 🤬
yes I saw this scam at a Dutch show so the man says he wants to help you buy a ticket and he asks for 20€ or sometimes more but the ticket only costs 1.50

Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way) don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
First of all, if you have any questions regarding Islam and yourself, just open the Quran randomly, and you will find the answer in front of you, like a miracle and a sign from God.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return.

I remember during my trip to Madrid with hubby and my young child, 3 pretty teens were targeting us. A shop owner reminded us and we noticed them. They knew we knew, but they still waited for us outside KFC as we tried to lose them. We all saw eye to eye and after an hour we ate and darely looked at them, they left.
I've just followed your channel. You do a great job on spreading such a helpful information.
Politicians better listen to society!
This should be the standard for misbehaviour for all people that don’t respect the foreign country regarding pickpocketing, taking advantage of social security and other crimes, irrespective of their nationality or ethnicity. Let their homeland take care of them.
My first morning in Paris (1982) I was accosted by a group of little gypsy kids who surrounded me and I had no idea what they were all chattering about. They were carrying large paper signs and pushing them up against me. One unzipped my camera bag and stole my purse which was on the top and then they all fled as quickly as they had shown up into a waiting Taxi probably driven by their parent. I spent a full day having to get a new passport and all of my travelers checks reassigned. The US Embassy treated me like I was the criminal doubting my story as I told it. It was an absolute nightmare and now I know. Good for the citizens going after these miscreants and thanks for filming it!

Leave your passport indoors safely at the hotel Take a picture of it on your phone to show if stopped for i.d.
@@sailingxtremeadventures542 pictures are not the same as actual id in a lot of places, so could get you in trouble for not having id.
That’s ridiculous how they can afford to get their nails done and live well from our money ….Thank you for your excellent work .They got us in Madrid a few years ago .Thank you for your work 👍👍🇦🇺
The nails are done like that for a reason. My friend was in a club in Madrid just a couple of weeks ago. On the way back from the bathroom, a woman slashed his arm by digging her nails into his skin. In the commotion of him realizing his arm was bleeding, she picked his pocket and ran off with his phone. Unfortunately he had apple pay connected to his phone with bis debit card and they somehow managed to get into it and drain his bank accounts. If you see any women with long pointy nails, run away!
@@danielkaufman1873 Holy sh!t. That's an insane tactic. 😲
You guys do very good job. Many cities in Europe need you.❤
Good job ! Elliot 🏆
Thank you for exposing these creeps. I was in Paris many years ago and more than half my group got pickpocketed, all of us were attempted pick-pocketed. Yup. The pick-pockets never got money from me, 'cause I was very vigilant. Steal from a grocery store if you are hungry, but don't steal from individuals on the street. Be careful, as I also warned some German tourists on the metro in Paris, France about pickpockets (who are mostly Moroccan). The Moroccan pickpockets then physically attacked me when I exited the metro train onto the platform. The pickpockets are always in groups. One way to avoid the pickpockets in Paris is to ride the bus, not the metro. The bus is much nicer, you can look out the window and see the scenery, and no stinky crowds to deal with, and a bus driver to help you if you need it.
Good tip
I worked there for a while. Had a few near misses.
One of the charity scammers tried to pocket dip me at the sacred couer. I smashed her clip board onto the floor.
Next minute four or five guys appeared from sidelines and started to bee line to me.
I was about to jog off, maybe hit the first one, all were big belly males and I was in my prime.
A van pulled up rapid of unmarked police and saved the day. That was crazy hahaha
How do you know if they are Morroccan? Did you ask their identity papers? Egyptians,Libians,Algerians,Tunisians,Moroccans,Bulgarians,Romanians,Turks, Israelis etc have a lot of similarities (brown hair,tanned skin colour, a lot of similar specific in their face etc! How can you tell the identity
Btw stealing from a grocery store are you for real? How about them working for their money instead! People owning grocery stores are going bankrupt because all of the thefts!
@@user-ne8ik6ms8o just a figure of speech. Do not steal.
Why is stealing from a grocery store ok? Fool 😂
The same type of groups are throughout Europe. The pickpocketers in Paris are not Parisians, the pickpocketers in Barcelona are not from Barcelona, the pickpocketers in Milan are not Italians, same in Prague and everywhere else. It’s time they were cleared out to their own countries. I once seen a father teach his son, who was about 10, the ‘ring trick’ in Paris. Thank you all for helping honest people.
A man in Paris tried this on me and because I'm honest and quickly smelt a rat I turned it round on him and said we should ask the security guard to help us look for the ring and call the police oh that was the last thing he wanted and finally after being persistent he gave up and probably cursed me 😂
100% and Europeans are so. Far to left they won’t solve it. Europistan!!!
In fact, most of them are from the same country and play the role of the victim. I have faced many thefts in Italy and Spain, all of them from the same country, unfortunately.
and where are they so??
@@PesChiesa romas/romanians/bulgarians/italians you dont even know anmore
Thanks for the heads up! I’ll be visiting Madrid this summer along w/ Barcelona.
I like the spirit of this people! Keep up the good work to keep the city safe!
i am italian and here they are left free to steal by the police (they get arrested and then they are freed to go after a couple of hours because here the most are pregnant women that come to italy illegally and they can't be arrested for this type of crimes because they are pregnant so the subways are full of those people that stole from everyone).
Italians are a bunch of losers
I live in Norway, and there are almost no gipsies left here, maybe because they are not let into the country either with children or while being pregnant? The few old gipsies who still come here, only beg, they don't steal..but since everybody knows that the beggars aren't even let to keep the money they beg, but have to give it all to "gipsy kings" or mafias, virtually nobody gives the beggars any money either..😊
@AZ0986688 The child protection services are liable to intervene. The other reason for the sharp decline in beggars is is that we have become largely cashless.
Se fazem isso com um brasileiro, iremos bater até nas grávidas e não estamos nem ai. Vai ser liberada mas com a cara toda quebrada!
@@AZ0986688 Isnt Norway dealing with another sickness? A Muslim One? Or was that Sweden?
Back in 2019, I was gifted a new Samsung phone. Second day I had it was on December 25, Christmas day, landed in Barcelona. Not even an hour in Barcelona, my phone got stolen! It was worth €1200!!! And when I went to the police station to report it while I was crying, the police officers told me that they won't be doing anything because it is their JOB TO STEAL. what the hell?! And during the same trip, my brother's wallet got stolen!!
Read up on the history of the Roma people. They actually consider it work to steal! Shameless. Disgusting
My mum got her iphone stolen in Spain a few years ago and unbelievably the police recovered it and posted it back to her in Scotland a few months later.
A pick pocketer stolen my phone last year in Paris. I was inside a really busy bus, was helping carrying my aquintances luggage heading to the airport. Went to checked my pocket to find that suddenly my phone disappeared out of thin air. Luckly my insurance covered it but not without having to go through endless and tiring emails. I think i guess we all found our common ground here lol
I live in Russia , my phone was stolen and within 2 days the police caught the thief and fine him for stealing. They will never come to Russia because they will jail them all for stealing
It’s an American, by the name of Soros who’s brought this to us, with his sick ‘Open Society’. They’ve taken away our country.
Watching out for pockets in Europe has been THE alert of all travel agencies here in my country.
Thank you for your service!!🤝
Paris needs this movement. Got attacked by 4 guys on the metro a few months ago and they took my phone right out of my front pocket (I had my hand in there but they distracted me for a few seconds). They are pretty sophisticated with fishing sites and such. Police and security couldn’t do anything. I was with friends and it still happened. We have pictures of the thieves and shared with police. I hope that people are more careful with the Summer Olympics coming up. Glad you’re doing this because I reached out to so called “influencers” and news channels to do a short bit to warn people and none gave a crap. Perhaps only when it happens to them that they start caring.
Was this early in the AM or late in the evening when there weren't many people on the metro ? And what route were you traveling ? I've never felt unsafe taking the Paris metro, so this is surprising to hear.
@@3l3llala13this was at the Concorde station around 3 PM this past early December. My two friends and I just finished a walking tour and ended at the gardens next to the Louvre. We visited the Xmas market there before heading to Montmartre. Went to the station, got our tickets, got to platform and a guy was looking at me. Didn’t think anything of it. When metro came, we got in line in front of the door. The same guy was getting at the next door but then went over to where we were trying to squeeze in. I had my hands in my front pockets like I always do on trains and buses. They squeezed my friends out and didn’t allow them to get on. They crowded me on the metro creating the illusion that it was crowded. I was going to move down towards the next door where it was more empty or get off and take the next one with my friends when they made space and allowed my friends to get on.
Then as I stood around one of the poles (was holding it with my right hand while left hand was in front left pocket where the phone was), one of them kneeled down and jangled a bunch of keys next to my right foot as if I was stepping on it. At first I just moved my foot and didn’t think anything of it. Then he continued for a bit more. I thought about kicking it away but not that kind of person. He started lifting my right foot up and down so I took my left hand out of the pocket to shoo him away with both hands saying “dude wth are you doing?” My first thought hearing metal clinging and him lifting my foot was that he was going to cuff it to the pole. That’s why I did what I did. Right then, they created a commotion and took my phone. It took 3-5 seconds and I realized “wait. My pockets are unprotected!” Went to feel for my phone and sure enough it was gone.
I didn’t allow the metro to leave, confronted them, security came out, marked phone as locked via iCloud using my friend’s phone, tried calling it, etc. Essentially, without proof, security and police couldn’t do anything. Four of them left together. I didn’t realize until that moment that it was a team sport. I am well traveled, usually careful, and never had any issues until then. Went to the police station to file a report and met so many people from all over the world that were victims of pickpockets or had their luggage broken into on the train. Paris is a beautiful city, but petty theft crimes have become rampant (similar to lots of major European cities).
After we filed the report, my friend got a text as we were leaving the police station. It said your phone’s location was updated and to login to see where it was. We were all tired after the ordeal and I went off the words of my friends that it was safe and tried logging in. Keyword is tried because after the second try, I wondered why it wasn’t working since I used the same username and pswd to mark the phone as lost earlier. I asked the other friend if this looked legit. We Googled the official icloud website and sure enough it was different. They basically got my login info to unmark the phone as lost, wipe it, and sell it. I had a passcode on as well. Anyway, this was the same night that a German tourist was killed in an ax attack near the Eiffel Tower. That happened 6 hours after I was pickpocketed. Again, beautiful city but it seems to have gotten worse vs my first visit almost 10 years ago.
That sucks so bad. I absolutely hate thieves.
Paris has it too. I saw a video about the Paris vigilantes. Same modus operandis.
never been to these touristy big cities and never wanted to.
My sister visited Hong Kong and got pickpocketed with $1k of her money on her first day while in the train and it really dampened her spirits during her vacation. These pickpockets have no shame and they don’t care if it ruins their cities reputation on tourism.
It's not their city, they are Gipsy
This money probably fed an entire family for a year. If I'd carry around cash I'd make sure it doesn't get stolen. Probably a good lesson
@n0tfr0mth1sw0rld You're justifying the thieves and saying that 1 dollar feed an entire family? Get out of here caveman
@@n0tfr0mth1sw0rldit can’t. The cost of living and food is kinda expensive
I was pickpocket in airport 2012 ,almost lost my passport,later I discover a gang of pickpocketnfrom hunan,china are responsible.
Thanks for sharing!!! Going to Spain next month.
congratulations for your great work from Arlington TX my support will continue, I have an idea you should take photos and give them to people so they don't forget the faces of those thieves how exciting that young people like you have made a difference in the world blessings
thank you for posting these kind of people, an EMBARRASSING TO THEIR COUNTRY.
Having dope fiends and bums is more embarrassing not sure what your talking about

This is so satisfying to watch! I can't stand people who can't make an honest living.
Hello ! May Allah protect and guide you to his light and happiness in this life and the hereafter, God bless, Ameen. Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. And terrorists (puppets of the Antichrist) who misinterpret verses, out of ignorance and political motivations, and take them out of historical context (just like radical atheists do by the way) don't help either. Thank you very much for your time.
First of all, if you have any questions regarding Islam and yourself, just open the Quran randomly, and you will find the answer in front of you, like a miracle and a sign from God.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI).
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning!
Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures.
Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement.
It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them.
(19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad)..
God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.”

Thank you for sharing this. Great that the citizens are fighting back as well.
There is a Dutch channel called Boevenspotter. This dude caught over 1500 pickpocked criminals. Crazy how he walks around and just spot them . Great channel. peace
they are easily recognizable if you know what to look for.
😮as a dutch didnt know this. Glad i dont visit cities that much. Ill check out the channel
I’m from Barcelona and when I go to visit family I don’t like going to the city. It’s such a shame that these people make the experience of the people that visit a terrible one.
Wow, u sure have guts! Keep up the good work, you are serving a great deed!!
