The language isn't that good, but I guess this is
readable, right?
Not very interesting if you ask me, more a Couch topic,
maybee intersting in the Law & Order forum.
Anyways, here it comes:
---------------------------------
The problem is the manufacturer
The problem is the manufacturers(Organised Crime) that
produce the drug and therefore control the contents of the
product. The manufacturers will also, because of this, be
in control of our children's life (or death).
The Manufacturers get the profit, society pays for the
damages and parents pay with the lives and health of
their children. The only solution is that the government
starts manufacturing and selling legal MDMA - ecstacy.
The Danish authorities must at least minimize the risk
for our children by testing the pills anonymously at
the clubs/parties and at laboratories. Anything else
would bee irresponsible, towards both our kids and
us as parents.
Watching Chemicals
The international laws concerning control of chemicals
(precursors) used to manufcature drugs is outlined in
Danish law nr. 479 from 30th June 1993.
The daily job of registering new companies, giving permits
and licenses for import/export is the responsibility of
the Tax & Customs-office.
The National Police works tightly with the Tax and Custom's
office when it comes to companies that are allowed to
handle the watched chemicals.
Due to the fact that alot more chemicals than those mentioned
in the laws concerning drug-manufacture can bee used in the
production of illicit drugs it was decided in 1999 in assocation
with the EU that a cooperation between the authorities and
suppliers of chemicals was needed. This means that the latter
mentioned party is obligated to report any suspicious purchase
where the chemicals might be used in the production of illegal
drugs.
With basis in this cooperation an investigation was started
in 2001, concerning a case in the Ålborg area pertaining
to a bust of an Amphetamine- and Ecstacy-lab in 2000.
This investigation of the now sentenced persons purchase
of chemicals and lab equipment revealed the amount of
of amphetamine and ecstacy they would we able to produce
in their illegal lab.
The accused were sentenced to 6 and 3 years prison,
respectively, for producing or having intent to produce
7250 ecstacy pills and 630 grams, which is equal to 3-5
kilos "on the street".
In 2001 illegal laboratories were found in both Roskilde
and Copenhagen "jurisdictions". With the help of information
from a chemical supply house investigation was started
against a private person (weedar: as opposed to a company)
who did some suspicious purchases.
The investigation lead to a laboratory in Roskilde, but also
through this person a lab in Copenhagen, run by another
person.
The labs had produced approximately 100 gram pure amphetamine
as well as attempts to produce amounts of different types
of synthetic drugs. No amounts of the latter were
specified.
