Drugs hidden in boxes of fruit

Norway: Largest-ever cocaine seizure made in Oslo

Norwegian police officials have made the largest-ever cocaine seizure in the nation when they discovered 800 kilograms of the drug in boxes of fruit in Oslo. According to Norwegian news agency NTB, the drugs were found this week following a tipoff from German police. Police didn’t disclose the exact date that the cocaine was found in Oslo, or where the fruit originated from. No one has been arrested in Norway.

Police spokeswoman Grete Lien Metlid said it was the largest seizure ever in Norway. She added that it was too early to say whether the cocaine was intended for the Norwegian market, or if Norway was being used as a transit point.

The fruit boxes had arrived at a warehouse facility of Bama, a large Norwegian fruit and vegetable wholesaler.
