This Swedish model showed Goa police selling drugs

Panaji: Goa Police are planning to visit Sweden to record the statement of Swedish model Lucky Farmhouse, who used a spycam to expose drug peddler-police nexus in the state, crime branch sources said.

The sources confirmed that they have moved the file to under secretary (Home) to get the financial approval for the visit, which is very crucial to investigate the case.

"The file is with the Home Department. Once the approval is granted, we will send an officer to Sweden to meet Lucky at her residential address," a senior officer said.

Lucky, who had exposed the links of her boyfriend drug peddlar Atala alias Yaniv Benaim with Goa Police, had told the police that she is ready to visit the state only in August.

DSP (crime branch) Chandrakant Salgaonkar had said they cannot wait till August to get the statement.

The crime branch has also written to Lucky asking her to advance her visit, sources said.

DIG Ravindra Yadav told PTI that police could consider visiting Sweden if Lucky fails to turn up.

Police are expecting headway into the nexus on the basis of the evidence available with Lucky.
