Two people arrested for sanctions violations in Sundsvall released

The two people who were arrested for serious sanctions violations in Sundsvall have been released, the Swedish Prosecution Authority says.

However, suspicions remain and the preliminary investigation continues. The police are working "intensively" to secure evidence, and more interrogations are expected.

They were both arrested after house searches at a company in Sundsvall, in which police officers from the national task force participated.

The crime classification as a sanctions offence means that international sanctions have been violated, which aim to restrict the movement of goods, services and people linked to, for example, violations of international law.
