Norwegian customs seize 22 kg cocaine in Trysil, one of largest local hauls

Norwegian customs officers in Trysil seized 22 kilograms of cocaine hidden in a concealed compartment of a foreign-registered vehicle in February, marking one of the largest seizures ever made in the area. The arrest of a young foreign national suggests an ongoing smuggling operation, with authorities noting smugglers frequently change routes. The seizure underscores Norway's role as a transit point for drug trafficking, though the source's origin and destination remain unclear.
