Cocaine is becoming more common in Norrbotten. In January, the Luleå police made a seizure of around three hectares, worth around 300,000 kroner – the largest so far in the county, says chamber prosecutor Joseph Ricken for Norrbottens-Kuriren.

That there are more cocaine seizures in the county can be seen in the number of criminal cases and confirmed by various police sources, according to the newspaper.

A 40-year-old man is in custody on suspicion of a serious drug offence. A 45-year-old man is suspected of involvement.
