IMalta ihlule iLuxembourg ekubeni ngeyokuqala iyuniyani yase-Europe umbuso ukugunyaza ukusetshenziswa kwensangu ukuzilibazisa nokutshalwa kanye nokuba ne-cannabis ukuze uyidle.
Umthetho omusha ovimbela ukusetshenziswa nokutshalwa kwalesi sidakamizwa ugunyazwe yiphalamende laseMalta namuhla.
Lo mthetho uphasiswe ngamavoti angama-36 kwangama-27, futhi manje udinga ukusayinwa umthetho ngumongameli waseMalta.
Ukuphasiswa kwalo mthetho kunconywe uNgqongqoshe wezokuLingana u-Owen Bonnici, obehola lo mthethosivivinywa. U-Bonnici uthe kuphawula ukwamukelwa kwendlela entsha “yokunciphisa ukulimala” kwensangu.
“Umthethosivivinywa wokuguqulwa kwensangu usanda kuvunyelwa esigabeni sesithathu sokufunda. Singabenzi boshintsho,” kubhala ungqongqoshe kuTwitter.
Ngaphansi kwalo mthetho omusha, abantu abadala baseMalta bazokwazi ukuthwala ngokusemthethweni amagremu angu-7 ensangu ngaphandle kokwesaba ukuboshwa noma ukuphucwa le nto.
Labo ababanjwe netshe elikhudlwana kubo, eliphakathi kwamagremu angu-7 no-28, kuzodingeka bavele ngaphambi kwenkantolo yokuphatha esikhundleni senkantolo yobugebengu.
Ukutshalwa kwezitshalo ezifika kwezine zensangu ekhaya manje sekuzoba semthethweni futhi. Izitshalo, nokho, akumele zibonakale esidlangalaleni. Ngaphezu kwalokho, abantu bazokwazi ukugcina amagremu angu-50 omkhiqizo omisiwe emakhaya abo ngaphandle kokwesaba ukubhekana nanoma yimiphi imiphumela.
Ukubhema insangu emphakathini, nokho, akuvumelekile, kanti izephula-mthetho zibhekene nenhlawulo efinyelela kuma-euro angama-235 ($266), kanti inhlawulo ikhuphuke ibe ngaphezu kwama-€500 uma le nto ibhenywa ngaphambi kwezingane.
Ukuhweba ngensangu kusalokhu kukhawulelwe kakhulu, futhi ababhemayo abangafuni noma abangakwazi ukuzikhulisa kufanele bajoyine "izinhlangano ze-cannabis" ukuze bathole lesi sidakamizwa. Lezi zinhlangano, ezingasungulwa kuphela njengezingenzi-nzuzo ngabantu abazimele, zizokwazi ukusabalalisa umkhiqizo phakathi kwamalungu azo, kufikela ku-7 grams ngosuku kanye namagremu angu-50 ngenyanga.
Lo mthetho ugxekwe kakhulu amaqembu aphikisayo aphakathi kwesokudla, odokotela, izinhlangano ezingekho ngaphansi kukahulumeni kanye neSonto lamaKhatholika, nabamelene nabo bexwayisa ngemiphumela ehlukahlukene engaba khona ngenxa yawo.
Ukwesaba ukuphenduka Malta emphandwini wezidakamizwa, nokho, abaxhasi balo mthetho bachithiwe, abakholwa ukuthi kungaba sengozini yokuholela ekusetshenzisweni kabi kwewunga.
“Uhulumeni akagqugquzeli neze abantu abadala ukuthi basebenzise insangu noma bakhuthaze isiko lensangu. Uhulumeni uhlale enxusa abantu ukuthi benze izinqumo ezinempilo,” kubhala uBonnici.
Ukwamukelwa komthetho kwenza Malta okokuqala iyuniyani yase-Europe izwe ukuthi lixegise kakhulu imikhawulo yalo ehlobene ne-cannabis. Uhlelo olufanayo lwembulwa yiLuxembourg ngo-Okthoba, yize umthethosivivinywa ofanele usalinde ukugunyazwa yiphalamende.
LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
- Ukubhema insangu emphakathini, nokho, akuvumelekile, kanti izephula-mthetho zibhekene nenhlawulo efinyelela kuma-euro angama-235 ($266), kanti inhlawulo ikhuphuke ibe ngaphezu kwama-€500 uma le nto ibhenywa ngaphambi kwezingane.
- Lezi zinhlangano, ezingasungulwa kuphela njengezingenzi-nzuzo ngabantu abazimele, zizokwazi ukusabalalisa umkhiqizo phakathi kwamalungu azo, kufikela ku-7 grams ngosuku kanye namagremu angu-50 ngenyanga.
- Nokho uvalo lokushintsha iMalta isizinda sezidakamizwa, luchithiwe ngabaxhasi balo mthetho, abangakholwa ukuthi kungaba sengozini yokuthi kugcine sekubhebhetheka ukusetshenziswa kwensangu.
