It is unusual for such a large sum of cocaine to be found inside the country, the newspaper writes, estimating the value of the narcotics on the street to at least 70 million kronor.

Two people were arrested on the spot in connection with the operation, in which the police also participated. The two have been detained, suspected of extremely serious drug offenses.

Two more men have been arrested, suspected of serious drug offenses.

They were arrested at the same time. There is a connection, but it's too early to say what kind of connection, says Linda Jeppsson Linderström, prosecutor at the national unit against international and organized crime in Malmö, to the newspaper.

The prosecutor tells HD that the operation on February 20 has connections to another ongoing investigation of a man in Malmö who is suspected of handling a batch of amphetamine.
