🇸🇹 São Tomé and Príncipe
Police’s Operation 971 targeted cannabis fields and sales points across São Tomé and Príncipe in July 2024.[1]
Seven men and two women, all São Toméan, were detained and brought for an initial judicial hearing.[1] The operation involved the prison and social reintegration service and the state leaders’ protection unit alongside the judicial police.[1]
A year later the same press reports still called the seized drug liamba: three men arrested in São Tomé with 30 g, released on bail by the judicial authorities.[1]
