…and they all handed their passports over and 3 fell out..

Having got through the Danish checks I assumed they wouldn’t check again in Sweden.

I was wrong.

The Swedish border controllers were stricter than the Danish, although they didn’t make us take our luggage out of the bus which was nice of them.

After a lot of to-ing and fro-ing, and a lot of hi vis people getting on and off the bus inspecting things and talking into their walkietalkies and/or phones, three people were told to get off the bus for unknown (to me) reasons.

I overheard one lady asking why she couldn’t continue on to Malmö, only to get this reply:

“I ask the questions here.”

And that was that. End of conversation.

They were eventually (~40 minutes later) taken to one of the rooms in the building on the right and the bus was allowed to finish the journey in peace.
