Call to take weed policy further
Tuesday is the final day for a government amnesty over those who wish to declare cannabis which they have in their possession for medicinal use. After that, those caught with the drug could be arrested and charged.
The amnesty was declared on Feb 27 as a result of amendments to the narcotics law by the National Legislative Assembly on Dec 24 last year, which exempts marijuana use for medical purposes from prosecution.
