Peter Øvig Knudsen

Peter Øvig Knudsen's 'Blekingegadebanden 2' (2007) is the second part of his trilogy documenting Denmark's most talked-about terror case. It examines how a group of left-radical activists carried out armed robberies and bomb attacks in the 1970s and 1980s to fund the PFLP's liberation struggle.

Peter Øvig Knudsen's prize-winning 2007 book portrays the Danish cell of the Blekingegade Gang, which carried out a series of spectacular robberies throughout the 1970s and 1980s to support the PFLP. The book documents the case up to the police raid on Blekingegade in Copenhagen in 1989.
