The Constitutional Court has ruled that the personal use of dagga is not a criminal offence.



































The Constitutional Court has ruled that the personal use of dagga is not a criminal offence.

"The right to privacy is not confined to a home or private dwelling. It will not be a criminal offence for an adult person to use or be in possession of cannabis in private space," deputy chief justice Raymond Zondo said on Tuesday.

"The judgment does not specify how many grams of cannabis can a person use or have in private."

The ruling follows a Western Cape High Court judgment that the possession, cultivation and use of dagga for private use was allowed. photos by Trevor Kunene
