During a patrol on a street in Grajewo, police noticed two men who hurried out of a stairwell and got into a parked Ford.[1] When asked for identification, the men acted very nervously and insisted they had no prohibited substances.[2] Officers searched the car and found two packets of green dried plant material in aluminium foil under the front passenger seat.[1] A preliminary drug test confirmed the material was marijuana weighing about 10 grams.[1] The 40-year-old admitted that the dried material found in the car was his.[1] Police then searched the 37-year-old’s flat and secured further intoxicants there.[1]

Both men were detained and taken to the police station.[1] Both were charged with possession of narcotic drugs.[1] Under the drug-prevention law, the possession charge carries up to three years’ imprisonment.[1] The secured substances were placed in the police depot.[2]
