Swedish editors reported over gambling adverts

The editors of two Swedish newspapers and two magazines have been reported to the police for publishing foreign gambling adverts. Sweden's gaming board says that the papers, Metro and Expressen, and the magazines, Slitz and Spray, have broken a law which makes it illegal to publish ads from gaming companies other than those owned by the state. The editors justify doing so by arguing that Swedish law is inconsistent with EU law. (Via The Local - Sweden's news in English)
