On Monday, May 3rd, at around 9.30 a.m., a hemp plantation was dismantled at Promise Land Road. During the police action, 30 hemp plants were found and confiscated in the backyard of a home.
The police have noticed that there is a false belief among the population about a tolerance policy on Saba. This is absolutely not the case. The police will continue to actively monitor cannabis possession and its cultivation.
