One of the highest penalties we have ever seen for a consumer. According to public prosecutor, cultivation is weighted more heavily than possession in Schwyz, as this would also allow further cultivation. Accordingly, possession of, say, 200 grams of cannabis instead of the plants would have resulted in a lower fine. The costs are probably so high because there was a house search with three police officers, which lasted one and a half hours, the 22 plants had to be destroyed, the interrogation lasted two and a half hours and also a prosecutor dealt with the case.
First, there was a fine for possession of an unpunished minor amount of cannabis. Only after an appeal and a interrogation the authority followed the law and stopped the proceedings.
Another discontinuation order because of a minor quantity. Here, the whole argumentation is nicely summarized again.
