UK: Four arrested over bid to build 'cannabis cafe'
Ananova
Tuesday 26 Mar 2002 Four men have been arrested on charges of attempting to build a cannabis cafe in a Dorset warehouse without the permission of the owner. Officers made the arrests after renovations were made to a Bournemouth industrial unit with the intention of creating a Dutch-style cannabis cafe. One man aged 30, two aged 22 and an 18-year-old, all from the Stockport and Manchester areas, were held on suspicion of causing criminal damage and offences under the Misuse of Drugs Act. Detective Inspector Steve Thorpe, of Bournemouth CID, said: "We received an allegation from the owners of the property in relation to damage caused by people illegally on the premises - that they have done alterations without the owner's consent. "The other allegations we have to look at is whether there is any potential offence in the starting of a cannabis cafe. We think it was planned to open on April 1. "We will be looking at the use of the premises and things done in the two or three weeks in the lead up to the opening."
