A Polish man in his 50s has been sentenced to ten and a half years in prison for smuggling 40 kilos of amphetamine. He was disguised as an employee of the pharmaceutical company BioNTech.

The man came to Norway by ferry from Denmark with a car that was rented in Germany, Norwegian Broadcasting (NRK) writes.

In a compartment in the roof of the car, customs officers found 40 kilos of amphetamine. The car was covered with magnetic stickers that made it look like he came from the pharmaceutical company BioNTech, known for contributing to the Pfizer vaccine development.

The man has been sentenced in Vestfold District Court to ten years and six months in prison.
