Hundreds of taxi drivers barred from Oslo Airport amid fraud allegations
Hundreds of taxi drivers have been excluded from Gardermoen Airport, with ten facing police charges after a fraud scheme was exposed.

The issue was first raised by veteran taxi driver Jarle Kanaris, who warned that drivers were intercepting passengers before they reached official booking machines and demanding higher fares.
