Police raided the flat of Ja'far Ismailović in Skopje and found him and several young people smoking nefes, a cannabis powder, in a pipe. He had sold hashish and nefes for decades. Because enjoyment of the drug was not punishable under the laws of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, the court gave him a symbolic suspended sentence and costs, which he had already served in custody. A history of the period records Indian hemp grown in walled gardens of the old town, hashish brought from Thessaloniki, and sales moving into private houses as police raids became more frequent.[1]
