The Kray Twins

The Kray Twins, Ronnie and Reggie Kray, were notorious British gangsters active in London during the 1950s and 1960s. They were involved in organized crime activities such as extortion, protection rackets, and violence. Known for their charismatic yet ruthless personas, the twins controlled much of London's underground scene. Their influence waned after their arrests in 1968, leading to convictions for murder and other crimes. The Krays remain infamous in British criminal history, symbolizing the era's gangster culture, and their lives have been the subject of books, films, and ongoing public fascination.
