For the past five years, the Norwegian and Danish authorities, with the support of Eurojust, have been operating a joint investigation team to combat drug trafficking. A recent evaluation of this JIT highlights the successful fight against an organised crime group (OCG) that was trafficking large quantities of different types of illicit drugs from Morocco to Denmark and Norway via Spain. As a result of the JIT that started in 2019:

• 83 suspects were sentenced to a total of 414 years' imprisonment in Norway;
• 69 perpetrators were sentenced to a total of 623 years' imprisonment in Denmark;
• More than 9600 kilos of cannabis, 675 kilos of cocaine, 355 kilos of amphetamines, 77 kilos of synthetic drugs, and 41 kilos of heroin were seized in the two countries, as well as various firearms;
• Other seized assets included several apartments and other properties, a vehicle, a boat, a motorbike, and luxury watches, as well as cash and cryptocurrencies, with an estimated total value of €15.6 million.
