- The 43-year-old has told police about his own role in the smuggling of large quantities of marijuana, and he has also explained about the others ' role in the case, and this was reflected in the severity of the sentence.

in addition to the 43-year-old is a wide variety of other persons have been judged to have been a part of the smuglernetværket. Among the convicted is a 48-year-old man from Arden, who helped to omlæsse the many thousands of pounds of marijuana in a storage building at his residence in Arden, south of Aalborg. It was, among others, at the 48-year-old, the 43-year-old brought illegal drugs, which he transported 300-500 kilos of pr. walk in a small trailer on to the end of the line in Horsens, denmark from where it was sold on to street-level. the

I also think that the police's excellent investigative work has increased the incentives for defendants to cooperate with the police, " says Morten Rasmussen to Ekstra Bladet.

special committee on Special Investigations to the West can rejoice over the roses from the prosecutor, and their boss, inspector Brian Voss Olsen, Horsens Folkeblad called the case unusual, because you have revealed the offenders on several levels.
