Sentenced a 46-year-old Portuguese woman, who was found to have almost 500g of cocaine

Sentenced a 46-year-old Portuguese woman, who was found to have almost 500g of cocaine in the home she shared with another woman in La Joya area, to three years in prison for a crime against public health and set a 1,000-euro fine for selling substances that endanger public health. The sentence was reduced due to the woman’s addiction to the substance which she sold out of a broken window to pay for her own habit and which had diminished her mental capacity. In June 2006, National Police found 422.32 grams of the drug in 150 packs of different size and weight, with a pureness of between 27 and 73 per cent, which would have had a value of 490 euros. Police also confiscated methadone tablets, three blades on which traces of the drugs were found, bicarbonate, hiposodic saline solution, a spoon, a mirror and aluminium paper.
