It was on May 20 last year that the police stopped a car in Uppsala for a check.
This led to a house search in central Uppsala where drugs, firearms and two explosive devices were found.
One of the explosive charges was fitted and had an electronic remote trigger.
The finding led to an extensive investigation and reconnaissance against a criminal network.
Now 58 people have been charged.
Athlete from Gästrikland
Two of the people come from Gävleborg.
One is a man from Hudiksvall and the other an elite athlete with roots in Gästrikland.
The athlete is prosecuted on suspicion of drug offenses as, according to the indictment, he must have possessed drugs for his own use but also possessed drugs for the purpose of transfer.
This must have happened between June and November 2019. However, he denies the crime.
The man from Hudiksvall is charged on suspicion of a serious weapon crime.
Among other things, he is said to have had firearms with sharply charged cartridges.
He also denies any wrongdoing.
Large-scale sales
During the investigation, 17 people have been arrested on suspicion of involvement in the scandal, which according to the police is about large-scale sale of drugs.
Among other things, the police have seized about 20 kilos of amphetamine.
The charges against the suspects include extremely serious drug offenses, aggravated preparation for general destruction, aggravated weapon crime and aggravated fraud.
