It was in January that a man was arrested in Piteå on suspicion of serious drug offences, and the police’s continued investigation led to a crackdown on a woman in Luleå that the police previously had no knowledge of.
A large amount of cocaine was found in the home, according to information to SVT Norrbotten.
But above all, packaging material was found and cocaine worth tens of thousands of kroner was found in the garbage.
Drug hub
The drug that was found in the woman’s home is suspected to have come directly from the “factory” as it does not look like other cocaine on the street in Norrbotten.
The appearance of the cocaine together with the value of the “forgotten” narcotic should, according to information given to SVT, make the police suspect that the woman was a large wholesaler of cocaine in Norrbotten.
Both the woman and the man are in custody suspected of serious drug offences, but the prosecutor does not want to comment on the suspicions against the woman.
– It is an ongoing investigation that I cannot comment on, says prosecutor Jonas Fjellström.
