The law, without the comedy

Karagöz and Hacivat make people laugh, but the law on cannabis is no joke. This applies in Bursa as everywhere in Türkiye.

1

Using or having it

A crime even for yourself: 2 to 5 years in prison (article 191). A first case can be deferred for 5 years with probation and treatment.

2

Giving, selling, sharing

Trafficking (article 188): very long prison sentences, often 10 years or more.

3

Encouraging others

Encouraging use or making it easier, including online, is a separate crime (article 190).

4

Driving

Drug driving means losing your licence and a criminal case, on the Uludağ road as anywhere else.

Shadow play

Karagöz and Hacivat explain

Karagöz asks the questions everyone asks; Hacivat, who always knows the rules, answers. Pick a question. A guide, not legal advice.
