Trader cleared over cannabis plants
By Andrew Phelan
Tuesday November 29 2011
AN out-of-work market trader has been found not guilty of cultivating cannabis at a north Dublin apartment where the drug was found growing in a tent.
Nsa Okpo (41) was alleged to have been responsible for cannabis plants found growing under an ultraviolet light in tent in a bedroom.
But a judge dismissed the case against him after ruling there was insufficient evidence that the plants were his.
Okpo had pleaded not guilty to a charge of unlicensed cultivation of cannabis at Temple Gardens, Northwood, Santry on August 26, 2010. Garda Jason Moran told Dublin District Court he went to the address with a search warrant on foot of confidential information.
Okpo was not there, so the garda "breached" the door and entered. In a bedroom, he found a tent which contained four plants, UV lights and other instruments.
Seized
The apartment was empty, so the garda seized the plants and had them tested.
Later that evening, he contacted Okpo and told him about the search and that his door would need to be fixed.
"He seemed to get annoyed and started shouting down the phone that I had burgled his house and stolen his drugs," Garda Moran alleged.
He also alleged Okpo said he was the only person who lived at the apartment at the time.
Cross-examined by defence solicitor Michael O'Connor, the garda said he did not include either of these alleged comments in his statement or notes.
Judge Patricia McNamara said it seemed extraordinary that the alleged comments were not in the garda's statement.
She said it had not been proven that the accused lived there and that nobody else did.

Two arrested after cannabis-growing plant discovered
Monday, November 28, 2011 - 06:02 PM
Gardaí have today arrested two men after uncovering a substantial cannabis-growing operation, and drugs worth nearly €500,000, in Co Louth.
Acting on intelligence they had gathered as part of an ongoing operation, the Garda National Drugs Unit and gardaí from Dundalk searched a house in the Seatown area of the town this morning.
They seized around 800 cannabis plants, along with seven kilos of herbal cannabis - with an estimated street value of up to €400,000.
The two men, aged 31 and 42, are being held at Dundalk Garda Station under Section 2 of the Criminal Justice Act.
A house in south Dublin where gardai found cannabis plants being grown by a gang of drug dealers in October last year.
Rte news?
Although Ireland has not got the climate to grow these plants outdoors,
Studies have also shown that bullshit can be made easier to swallow by placing the word study in front of it.
Living in this country and having to put up with the gobshites in power will lead to psychosis quicker than any "skunk"
This country is a mad house as far as I can tell.
