Plants in the trunk: Arrest in Colonia de Sant Jordi raises questions

Answer

Why do police pay attention to cannabis plants found in a car in Mallorca?

Cannabis plants in a car can suggest more than personal use, especially if the plants are mature, transported in quantity, or hidden in the trunk or back seat. In Mallorca, police may treat such a discovery as a sign of illegal cultivation or transport rather than a simple possession case. Officers then check where the plants came from and whether other people are involved.
