Seven men were sentenced on Thursday to between six and ten years in prison, of which four are also sentenced to deportation.

The target was extensive due to the large quantities of narcotics and the way the business was conducted.

- The police carried out a raid in 2020 where large quantities of narcotics were found.

Since then, it has been a lot about connecting the anonymous chats to the suspected persons and then you have been able to see that the activity has been going on for a long time, says Marinette Gustafsson.

Considered as a deed

The prosecutor had requested a longer prison sentence, but Gustafsson says that the district court assessed the case differently than the prosecutor.

- We have assessed this as one deed, instead of several.

Then the penalty scale is six to ten years for particularly serious drug offences, so they have received the maximum sentence.

- The person who was sentenced to six years in prison was sentenced earlier this year in the Nyköping district court to eight years in prison for an extremely serious drug crime, and the maximum sentence for several such charges is 14 years.

He has thus been sentenced to the maximum sentence he has, she explains.

Agree right

During the trial, the working group in the district court was somewhat strengthened, so as not to risk a situation with absence due to illness or the like.

The two legal judges and four jurors were unanimous in their decision.
