Suspicions were raised in January that the women, aged 55 and 65, were supplementing their pensions by selling narcotics. When police searched their homes they found a total of 4 kilos of amphetamines hidden in cool bags, plastic containers and a gold-coloured porcelain dog.
Scales, believed to have been used for selling drugs, were also found.
Malmo District Court convicted the two women of drug dealing, sentencing the 55-year-old to five years in jail. The 65-year-old was put on probation by the court, but after an appeal by prosecutors she was also jailed for five years by the Court of Appeal.
