Four people have been arrested on suspicion of serious economic crimes linked to the sale of medicines, including the weight-loss drug Ozempic. The arrests occurred on Tuesday in Örebro län, Sweden. The suspects are accused of serious business money laundering and serious money laundering.
According to the prosecutor, the sales took place via websites and generated revenues of several million kronor. The Swedish Medical Products Agency has repeatedly warned about the risks of buying medicines on unknown websites, as buyers do not know what type of preparation they are actually receiving.
