Isn't it absolutely devastating when you go out to buy something and end up with something completely different? Well, that is what happened to a guy who went to buy weed but ended up with celery.?
A video is going viral on the internet where an Indonesian man is complaining to the police about buying celery instead of marijuana from a drug dealer.?
In the said video,?a man in a green jacket is seen making a police report about an illegal substance.?He's holding a mysterious piece of paper that contains the ¡°drugs¡± he bought.?
But when he opened the piece of paper it emerged that the drugs were not the marijuana he had been hoping for ¨C it was just celery leaves. It also contained normal grass.??
The police officers can be seen laughing while hearing the report and asking the man to open the paper packet he was holding. This instance occurred at the Palembang police station in South Sumatra.
The incident took place on March 28. The original video was uploaded by Instagram user @Palembang_Bedesau, but it went viral when it was reposted on the account @potretpalembang.?
According to a translation, the man said: ¡°I bought it for 50,000 Rupiah (?2), sir. But it was only ordinary leaves.¡±
Then the police asked the man if?marijuana, which he was hoping to buy, was ¡°a drug or not¡±. He was even asked how many times he has used the drugs. But there was no proper response.?
The police even thought of?arresting him for drug possession, but let him go as it wasn't actual drugs that he was holding.?
This is not the first case when another leafy plant has been mistaken for marijuana. Last year in 2021, a woman from Oklahoma, USA was left in tears when she was told to leave a church for bringing marijuana even though it was just coriander.?
This woman named Ashley Antiveros claimed that she was accused of bringing drugs when she attended a service involving prison inmates at Redemption United Methodist Church. She even asked the church members to smell it but nobody wanted to do that. She was then insulted and asked by the pastor to leave the church immediately.?
