Police conducted a search of her residence on two occasions last year on suspicion of drug offenses, according to official sources. A total of 18 grams of cannabis and 1,089 narcotics-classified tablets were found during the searches, the official sources said. The woman was convicted of two counts of drug offenses with a sentence of 8 months in prison, according to official sources.
The crime in the second case was discovered last summer when over a kilogram of narcotics was found in the couple's freezer, official sources reported. During the first search, police saw nearly 5,000 kronor in cash sticking out of the pocket of her bathrobe, official sources said. An additional 8,400 kronor was found in a handbag, according to official sources.
She was very surprised and had never seen any narcotics in the residence.
Redline bags were scattered in the residence, official sources reported. Police testified that narcotics in Redline bags were completely visible during the search, according to official sources. The exact timeline of these searches and discoveries has not been disclosed.
According to SVT Nyheter, the woman's companion described her as very surprised and said she had never seen any narcotics in the residence. The 72-year-old woman claimed that there had been drug users in her house but that due to her poor eyesight, she could not see what they were doing, according to SVT Nyheter. According to a statement from the Swedish Prison and Probation Service, the woman is in need of support, care, and control measures aimed at addiction, crime, and physical ill-health.
There had been drug users in her house but due to her poor eyesight, she could not see what they were doing.
The probation service also assessed that there is a need for supervision, official sources said. According to the court, it was established that she sold 2 grams of cannabis and that it appears obvious that the narcotics found in the residence were partly intended for sale. The specific types of narcotics-classified tablets found have not been detailed.
In the second case, the woman in the relationship quickly admitted that the narcotics belonged to her, according to official sources. She said she was helping a debt-ridden acquaintance, according to SVT Halland. Nearly 75,000 kronor in cash was also found in the residence, official sources reported.
She was helping a debt-ridden acquaintance.
The identity of the acquaintance and the nature of the debt remain unknown. The man denies any involvement and knowledge of the narcotics, according to SVT Halland. The man claims the cash, but says it is money he saved legally, according to SVT Halland.
The man's DNA was found on one of the narcotics packages, official sources said. How the DNA was specifically linked to the package has not been explained. Halmstad District Court assessed that the explanations were an after-the-fact construction.
He denies any involvement and knowledge of the narcotics.
Both were sentenced to 200 hours of community service, according to official sources. The district court did not believe the woman's story—both were convicted, according to major media reports. It is unclear whether there is any connection between the two cases, which were reported by different sources.
It is money he saved legally.
