In addition to possessing marijuana for personal use, 31-year-old, SA, Emirati, allegedly planted 11 seedlings of marijuana in his house for re-production, the Dubai Criminal Court heard.

Police was tipped off about SA possessing and taking drugs, so his house was raided. When SA came to his house, police approached him and asked him if he possessed drugs. The accused willingly guided police to his room where three pieces of hashish and a dried marijuana herb were found in a wardrobe.

“In the balcony, we confiscated marijuana seedlings that the accused admitted to planting for his personal use,” testified a police officer.

Police also confiscated tools used for taking drugs.

SA’s urine test proved positive to hashish and marijuana.
