Australia: Police hit Nimbin in joint sting

9 News

Saturday 26 Feb 2011

The Cannabis Coalition - a recently formed group seeking to field candidates for the upcoming state election - reported on Saturday that Nimbin was "under attack" from about 50 police and their sniffer dogs.

"For a town of some 300 people, it's quite ridiculous to have them all up here. There are usually just eight or nine police stationed in Nimbin," said Macciza Macpherson, a spokesman for the Cannabis Coalition.

"There are also reports that three entrances to the town are blocked," he said.

Mr Macpherson said it was part of a cannabis eradication campaign by the police who have moved up the coast over the past week.

Police confirmed they were in Nimbin on Friday and Saturday as part of a joint operation with the RTA and Immigration Department.

The RTA have been doing vehicle checks and immigration checks were also being carried out.

The police were focussed on drug checks and had two sniffer dogs.
