Anti-drug authority chairman criticizes Danino
Zvi Hendel, the chairman of the Israel Anti-Drug Authority, criticizes Police Commissioner Yohanan Danino after the latter urged a rethinking of the drug policies in the country, specifically with regard to the use of marijuana.
“This kind of statement is not supposed to come from a law enforcement officer, all the more so from the Police Commissioner,” Hendel says, according to Ynet.
“Marijuana is a dangerous drug which significantly harms its users, especially teenagers and young adults up to the age of 25, the age at which the body and especially the brain is still in the developmental process,” he concludes.
