The law on Anti Narcotics stipulates that drug addicts are deemed victims and therefore should be sent to rehabilitation centres instead of prison. Drug trafficker however, carries a maximum penalty of death. We paid the Attorney General offices a visit to express our concerns that many inmates who have been sentenced to death over five years ago still freely and safely controlled drug trafficking from prison, hence we encouraged AG for law enforcement. Following the meeting, two inmates were executed and the AG promised to execute others soon.
In order to curb drug trafficking, and help particularly young people to stay clear of drugs, GRANAT is planning to launch massive anti drug campaign by producing more counsellors through a train-the-trainers course.
