    (1). This shows our international airport does not have the right technology to scan body and baggages. If you have this then one problem is nailed. No incoming drugs.(2) Police are aware of the drug dealers who approach tourist. What has the police done to arrest the rings of drug sellers? (3) They may not be the only tourist who possess drugs. (4) If convicted by the courts, what would be the penalty.

    They need not bring this from Germany. According to many news articles they would have known plenty is availabe and bought it here in SL unless they were very stupid to come through many Airport scanners all the way from Germany.rajpriya

    Talking about milligrams... ridicolous... hahaha... stop the hypocrites, legalize it like is happening with intelligent people and like it always was before prohibition. It’s just a plant... afraid of a plant given by your gods?

    When reporting these stories, please always tell us whether these people are drug users or drug traffickers. I'm neither, and am pretty ignorant on this subject. But isn't that distinction all important?
