Copenhagen police arrested four Albanian men aged 21 to 49 on Monday afternoon over a drug hub on Amager. A search of an address in the area found about 400 grams of cocaine, 450 grams of ketamine, a smaller amount of MDMA and almost 50,000 kroner in cash, according to Danish Police.

All four appear in remand hearings today at the Dommervagten in Copenhagen City Court's Vestre Fængsel unit.

A 46-year-old man was arrested at his workplace in Lyngby on Tuesday and appears in the Dommervagten today, charged under the immigration act with fraudulently obtaining Portuguese citizenship. Police said the arrest followed a long investigation with the Portuguese authorities. Originally a Bangladeshi national, he has stayed in Denmark since 2015 and has worked illegally for 11 years.

Police also fined 20 cyclists 700 kroner each for riding on the pavement at Dronning Louises Bro, and cited 99 cyclists at roadworks on Nordre Fasanvej for not getting off and pushing their bikes, at 1,000 kroner each. A taxi measured at 104 km/h in a 50 km/h zone on Ågade was seized.
