Officers discovered the flat’s address after a five-week surveillance operation.

After stopping a vehicle following a meeting between four men at a petrol station, police found a kilo of amphetamines. A search of a flat in Lyngby turned up 32 kgs of narcotics in a freezer,two loaded pistols , two shotguns, a hand grenade, 157 grammes of explosives, a detonator, a narcotics press, swords and knives.
