No, that's right. But there's a still a lot of things the police get away with, especially with respect to drug addicts, "troubled youth" and other people who don't get believed/sympathy when they complain. And then there's NNPF, a not-so independent NGO consisting of current and former narcotics police, which advocates for (and largely runs, without political approval) a much more macho tough-on-crime narcotics policy with school visits etc, interventions which have been rightly rejected by the Norwegian social science and political establishments. It's a constant fight to make sure Norwegian police doesn't drift closer to UK/US style police, and in many ways we are losing.
