Drug network smashed

Arrests have been made in Norway, the Netherlands and Belgium as part of a concerted drug raid led by Kripos, Norway's National Criminal Investigation Service (NCIS).

"Operation Broken Lorry", led by the NCIS division for organized crime, resulted in 34 arrests in the three countries and the seizure of 400 kilograms (880 lbs) of hashish, 10 kilos (22 lbs) of heroin and 6 kilos (13.2 lbs) of cocaine, just in Norway.

In addition to the confiscated drugs police have also charged several persons in connection with a 224 kilo (492.8 lb) consignment of hashish yet to be seized.
