Fugong County court sentences a man to five years for repeatedly selling wild-picked cannabis leaves, Nujiang, Yunnan

Yunnan High People's Court included a Fugong County People's Court judgment in a release of typical drug cases. The court found that the defendant had picked cannabis leaves growing wild in the mountains and sold them on fourteen occasions at prices between 50 and 300 yuan, and that an intercepted parcel contained 1.54 g. He was sentenced to five years' imprisonment. The case is notable in this corpus because the plant material was gathered from wild stands rather than cultivated.
