Dear friends,
Herewith I send you the translation of this excellent news from Spain:
Last Wednesday 25 april the Bilbao Cannabis Social Club Pannagh received the cannabis that was confiscated from them by the police on 3 October 2005. Pannagh is a legal association of cannabis consumers who have established a collective plantation meant for their own personal consumption. In full harvest time in 2005, the police intervened in the green house and took the plants. Three members of Pannagh, among them Martin Barriuso, were arrested. The Provincial Court of Vizcaya filed the case, as it acknowledged the legally constituted association that had nothing to do with a criminal organisation dedicated to drug trade. After many months of trial, Pannagh has obtained the return of the confiscated cannabis. The verdict is historical as there are no precedents of the return of cannabis to people from who it was confiscated in the jurisprudence. This verdict is a recognition of the freedom to farm for personal consumption and of the entire cannabis movement.
