The bet was made between January 31 and February 1 and this is the result:
- 14 different drug offenses were reported (possession, own use and/or for the purpose of transfer).
- Four drivers were also suspected of drunk driving and three cases of serious illegal driving were reported.
- In addition, three offenses against the Knife Act and two offenses against the Weapons Act were suspected.
The house search in both countries
– During the beginning of one evening, the police received a drug crime on the Finnish side which led to measures on the Swedish side in the form of a house search and seizure. Later in the evening, a vehicle was stopped on the Swedish side where a passenger told them that he had narcotics in Finland, which in turn led to measures in Finland – also where the house was searched and seized, says police operations manager Martin Asplund.
In total, several police and customs patrols and a number of service dogs participated.
– The collaboration worked really well and we achieved good results, summarizes Martin Asplund.
The police expect that further reports may be added after the operation.
