I seriously doubt that those were in the hackspace.

Sounds more like a serious case of having the hackspace in the wrong building with the wrong neighbours.

Well, I don't know who had them, but Sydsvenskan (Swedish newspaper) published the list of impounded goods, and there were 6 pipeboms on there.

No there where 6 "slangbomber" which is a home made firecracker, not a pipebomb.

Yeah, also listed in the police press release. Together with green lasers (not listed as missing from the hackspace), pepperspray and some other questionable stuff ...

The full report makes clear that it wasn't the colour that was the problem as such, but the fact that they where stronger than what is allowed to own without permission.
