As many as two thousand cannabis plants with a very high THC index seized in Benetutti. These are the numbers of the Police operation that led to the arrest in flagrante of a man living in the Sassari hinterland. A high percentage of active ingredient was subsequently found on the plants, the highest recorded on the island, equal to 22%.

The agents intervened on site while the tenant of the land was working. At the time of the check, inside a shed, they found about 900 marijuana plants to be dried with the use of special thermal fans. In a nearby field instead the rest of the "booty": another 1100 plants ready for harvest .

Qualitative analyses of the plants, carried out by personnel from the Scientific Police Office, immediately revealed the extremely high percentage of THC, which makes this drug extremely dangerous to consume. The man is now in prison in Nuoro. The State Police participated in the operation with personnel from the local Flying Squad, operators from Sisco in Cagliari and the Police Station in Ozieri.
