Police discovered cannabis plantations after drug test with fake urine!

Autobahnabfahrt Regau, 4844 Vöcklabruck, Österreich - On April 17, 2025, the Seewalchen motorway police carried out a routine check at the Regau motorway exit in the Vöcklabruck motorway exit at around 9:45 a.m. A 38-year-old driver from the Vöcklabruck district noticed the officials on suspicion of the addictive impairment. In a drug test that was carried out with a fake urine, there was an unexpected find and another investigation.

The police then temporarily decreased the driver's driver's license. During a voluntary review at his home address, the officers discovered two indoor growing systems with flowering cannabis plants. The hidden facility was found in a room camouflaged as a “secret course”, which indicates highly professional breeding. In addition, larger amounts of ready -to -use cannabis herb and cannabis resin were ensured, which indicates a not inconsiderable amount of illegal narcotics.

weapon warehouse and further searches

At the check, the police also secured two weapons, although there is a weapon ban for the 38-year-old. Investigations led to further searches in three additional apartments, in which indoor growing systems as well as other cannabis plants and drugstore were also ensured. A total of four people, including the 38-year-old and a 30-, 33 and 34-year-olds, were reported to the Wels public prosecutor.

The extension and the use of cannabis are subject to strict legal regulations in Germany. The illegal cultivation of narcotics, also known as homegrowing, is often seen as an escape before buying cannabis on the black market. More and more consumers are opting for growing cannabis to avoid the risk of buying dealers or from abroad. In reality, on the other hand, many of these activities are clearly illegal, and the police use modern methods to discover such plantations.

rising numbers for cannabis plantations

The number of cannabis plantations seized in Germany has increased in recent years: 619 plantations were registered in 2015 in 2015. North Rhine-Westphalia and Lower Saxony are the federal states with the most discoveries. The current developments in the drug area show that the cultivation of cannabis has increased in recent years, while the numbers in the Netherlands have declined. This is remedied by instructions and accessories that are easy to find online.

discoveries of such plantations are often carried out according to information from the personal environment or by investigations such as checking the electricity consumption. The police have strict legal framework for house searches, which usually take place early in the morning to secure evidence. During the searches, not only plants and drugs are confiscated, but also technical devices that were used during cultivation.

The legal consequences for the cultivation of cannabis are considerable. Even small quantities can be punishable, and the punishments vary significantly depending on the amount and circumstances of the cultivation. Therefore, experts recommend consulting legal assistance in the event of a house search to ensure the best possible defense.

The incidents described here and the associated legal framework reflect the complexity of the topic of drugs and in particular the cannabis cultivation in Germany, as well as the data of the [Federal Drug Commissioner] (https://datenPortal. Bundesdrugenveruftragter.de/).

The recent events in the Vöcklabruck region impressively show the challenge that the police face in combating drug crime and the importance of preventive and reactive measures in dealing with addiction agents.
