Company petitions High Court over impounded medical cannabis contraband
Pascalinah Kabi
A LOCAL medical cannabis company, Magic Dragon Medical, claims it has asked the High Court to order the release of a consignment of cannabis impounded by the army in Butha-Buthe enroute to South Africa earlier this month.
The army announced that it had seized a contraband of medical cannabis from a 23-year-old man who was allegedly attempting to smuggle it into South Africa. It accused medical cannabis companies of engaging in illicit trade of the product by farming it in Lesotho and smuggling it into South Africa to avoid paying taxes.
