On April 4, the Germinalt police zone noticed that a Peugeot Partner was traveling at high speed on the road. Approaching the passenger compartment, the officers perceived a strong smell of cannabis. By searching Christophe, 22, and the interior of the car, the suspicions are confirmed.

Troubleshoot friends

In Christophe’s bag, several small pacsons of cannabis and cocaine are discovered. In another bag, a sachet containing cannabis was found. In total, 152 grams of cannabis and 16 grams of cocaine are seized.

Invited to explain himself, the twenty-something goes directly to confession. “He explains that he has been selling for around 2 months at parties and buys his material not far from the city center of Charleroi”, specifies the prosecution.

The one who is nicknamed “the Polak” confirms, in the face of justice, that he started the sale to finance his consumption. “I used to drink in the evening and it was expensive. So I started helping out friends.” Via messages exchanged on the Snapchat application, the young dealer sold cannabis at 10 euros/gram and cocaine at 70 euros/gram. The investigation brought to light the existence of seven customers.

A good lesson

If, at the start, the prosecution intended to request, as usual in this type of case, a sentence of 18 months in prison, the substitute Lecomte changed tack in the hearing. A probationary suspension or a work sentence is desired. On the defense, a measure of favor is also pleaded for what was a “mistake” and which will serve as an electric shock.
