400 rail users searched for drugs


Recommended Posts

More than 400 people were searched during the operation, resulting in 150 cannabis cautions, 130 court attendance notices, and 18 people being charged with supply of a prohibited drug. ...

The problem i have with this story is:

150 cannabis cautions

130 court attendance notices

18 people being charged with supply

398 total busts ?

 

Am I reading this right? out of 400+ searches?

 

If so this is one of the most successful actions for police in recent history. Last year 600 police searched over a 1000 people on Oxford Street, Sydney and only busted 1 supplier and about 12 users. This is far closer to their normal success rate. Are they improving or is this a case of a journo misreporting the facts?

I read that they busted 100 people or so on the way in to the big day out. Frankly I'm surprised they didn't get a lot more. I suspect the dogs were overloaded by the sheer volume of drug scent in the air. Thank christ.
