The children from Halland who lived in isolation have been taken into care

The children were found during a police operation in Dalarna, 50 km from the family farm in Halland.

- We hand-picked a number of police officers who we considered were particularly suitable for handling children.

We chose to get there in civilian clothes so that the effort would be as undramatic as possible.

The task force did not participate.

We do not want to say anything more about the effort but refer to the social administration, says Lars Hedelin, press spokesperson at the Bergslagen police region to Dagens Nyheter.
