"Bigger fish"
20 kilos of drugs put the duo behind bars for a long time
They are no "small fry" and they know it. That's why two dealers who had to answer to the provincial court in Linz immediately accepted the multi-year prison sentences. They had smuggled and sold drugs on a large scale - and were no unknown quantity.
They confessed and this spared two men of Turkish origin from Linz (30, 36) even longer prison sentences. The duo allegedly smuggled around 20 kilos of cannabis to Upper Austria between 2021 and 2023 and also sold at least five kilos of "weed". The defendants, who both had various previous convictions, had used personal contacts with drug dealers in the Netherlands to obtain the illegal goods.
Additional sentence after conviction
"In some cases, it was only an attempt," said court spokesman Walter Eichinger. The younger man received an additional three years to the two-year sentence already handed down - making a total of five years in prison - while the 36-year-old accepted the four years in prison for his crimes.
