Tightening 🇲🇭 Marshall Islands

Marshall Islands expands drug-seizure powers to include cash

Cash used in drug transportation, import or export was added to property liable to seizure and forfeiture under a drug-law amendment effective on 4 June 2020. The law also renamed the narcotics act and added express controls on methamphetamine, MDMA and synthetic cathinones.[1] It republished the separate marijuana penalty ladder and the extra penalties for supplying minors.[1]
