    COPENHAGEN, July 9 (Reuters) - Two Swedes were found guilty of bombing the Danish tax agency last year by a court in Copenhagen on Thursday and have been sentenced to four and five years in prison respectively.

    The pair, aged 23 and 24, were found guilty of transporting a bomb via the Oresund Bridge, known from the TV crime series "The Bridge" and detonating the device in August 2019 in what the prosecutor had called a "terror-like attack".
