Aftonbladet writes that the Serbian police gave their Swedish colleagues information about exactly what was going to happen, including where and when.
– We gave them all information they needed to stop the robbery. We did everything except going there ourselves to stop the operation, says the Serbian police boss Milorad Veljovic to Aftonbladet.
The Swedish police deny that they had information about the exact details. They do not want to comment any further on the investigation at all but according to Svenska Dagbladet, the Serbian information said it would happen one week before it actually did. When nothing happened, the Swedish police let go of the extra security measures they had initiated around places where cash and other valuable goods are stored.
