Due to their ignorance of its ownership it isn''t until a week has passed that the authorities can have it forced open. There the remains of twenty eight refugees are found, a situation of unrelenting horror. Not only that; a black sludge pours out which contaminates the river and is the cause of a new, sickening dread that affects Norrtalje''s inhabitants, causing a lack of trust, aggression, violence.
