Just read another story involving Swedes and drugs.
There seems to have been a large increase in stories as late regarding such criminals.
It would seem more Swedes are going abroad to commit crime.

Better over there than over here wink.gif

From a business perspective, wasn't much point them growing canabis in Sweden, there is already enough domestic production to fill the current market need, and as the police said not so long ago, even the dealers now started to buy from domestic producers rather than import.

Interesting ...the article says (I highlight the relevant part):

The GNR police arrested a Swedish man in Lisbon on 11 January who had been on the run for three months on suspicion of belonging to one of the main cannabis production and selling networks in the Algarve that was dismantled in Olhão.

Yet... You have already branded Him a criminal ...Whatever happened to your cries of Innocent until proven guilty ...by this token, I assume You have also changed Your opinion and convicted Assange also?

...or does guilty until proven innocent and trial by media only apply to Swedes? wink.gif

If the guy was innocent why was he on the run? 3 months on the run doesnt anybody give him the benefit of the doubt.

What is this so-called "Swede's" name?

How much you wanna bet it contains something like Mahmoud, Al-Shabaz, or maybe ends in a -vich.

And that it most certainly does not end in a -qvist, -sson, -ström or something like that.

"Swede" my ass.
