In a recent development, a suspect linked to the fatal shooting of Dutch rapper Danzel Silos, known as Bigidagoe, has been apprehended at Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. The 20-year-old individual, whose identity remains undisclosed, was intercepted as he was preparing to board a flight to French Guiana in South America.

Authorities in Amsterdam have confirmed that the suspect is currently in custody and will soon be handed over to judicial officials in the Dutch capital. The family of the deceased rapper has been notified of the arrest made in Paris.

The tragic incident took place in the early hours of Sunday morning in Amsterdam, where Silos was fatally shot. A specialized investigative team has been assigned to delve into the circumstances surrounding the shooting, particularly focusing on a potential conflict between different rap groups.

Following the rapper's death, a series of explosions occurred at three separate locations in north and southeast Amsterdam.

Law enforcement officials have launched an inquiry to determine any possible connections between these incidents and the shooting of Silos.
