A 27-year-old woman described as a tourist was stopped at the Baladrà post and the Pas de la Casa border with under 1 gram of cocaine and 0.9 grams of hashish, according to Alto. A 30-year-old male tourist was detained at the Riu Runer crossing with 2.3 grams of cocaine and 8.4 grams of marijuana.
A third man, a 30-year-old Andorran resident, was detained at an El Tarter nightclub with 0.7 grams of cocaine. The article describes the amounts as consistent with personal use. The woman went through a fast-track procedure and was released with a fine and a suspended prison sentence. The two men were detained and no outcome is reported.
Why it matters: The amounts are those of a weekend traveller, not a dealer. The woman's fast-track fine and suspended sentence show how a few grams can still lead to criminal proceedings.
