Uh, Oh! Indian Police Seized 500 KG Cannabis From Drug Dealers — Only To Have Rats Eat It All Up!

The Indian police told a local court that the rats ate more than 500 kg of cannabis seized from drug dealers.

What Happened: Uttar Pradesh police, in a report submitted to a special Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act (1985) court, said that rats ate the confiscated marijuana stored in the warehouses of a local police station, reported the Hindustan Times.

The police submitted the statement after it was asked by the court to produce the 586 kg of marijuana that it recovered from drug peddlers. The police had seized 386 and 195 kg of marijuana in two different cases, according to the report.

“There is no place in the police station where the stored goods can be saved from the rats. The remaining marijuana from the huge consignment was destroyed by officers,” the police prosecutor told the court.

“Being small in size, the rats have no fear of the police, nor can the police officers be considered experts in solving the problem,” the prosecutor said.

The court later ordered a senior rank police officer to get rid of rats and deliver proof that rats consumed marijuana. It has also asked the police team to submit a report with evidence in this matter by Nov. 26.
