A local resident bought the drug “marijuana” and “hemp oil” from an unknown seller to sell them to others and to use himself. The transaction was done in ether, a cryptocurrency. The drug was delivered through the service offered by an online shopping delivery company. The drug was first hidden in tea and crayons, delivered to the resident’s Zhuhai address and transferred to the company’s Ilha Verde branch. The police seized the resident as he was collecting the package in May 2021. After two appeals and one contestation, the Court of Final Appeal affirmed the original sentence of six years and two months in prison.
