“You do not belong to the ordinary”

A newly purchased loaf of Pågen was found with, to say the least, valuable dough. Instead of wheat, syrup, rye flour and sourdough, the bread was filled with a pound of heroin.
Swedish Customs were able to arrest the bread smuggler at Gothenburg Central Station after the unusual discovery.
The train passenger had just arrived from Stockholm to Gothenburg Central Station on June 5 this summer when Swedish Customs decided to check in his suitcase. They then made a strange discovery to say the least, something that Göteborgs-Posten was the first to report.
A freshly bought Pågen loaf with less nutritious content was found in the bag. Someone had cut the inside of the bread and left only the edges. Instead of the sourdough-based content, the bread was filled with brown heron pods.

Two men have been arrested for smuggling bread.
Half a kilo of heroin
In total, almost half a kilo was found, which in street value corresponds to approximately 400,000 SEK. The man was arrested and Pågen’s bread was seized.
– Heroin in loaves of bread is not a common thing if you say so, says Michaela Linderoth, press secretary of the Swedish Customs to the newspaper.
Ten days later, it emerged that the detainee had been persuaded to smuggle the heroin to Gothenburg and then hand it over to another man.
After searching the other man’s apartment, a gym bag full of cash was found. Even a message on a phone could reinforce suspicions that the bread smuggling had been carried out in an organized manner.
Both men are charged with the crimes in the Gothenburg District Court.
