Backache? Headache? Terminal disease? Want to be 90% THC? A retired military officer in Klang had the solution for you: ganja-based goods. That’s right, homie had chocolate, margarine, bhang, honey, milk and if you had acted before his arrest yesterday, there were 2 slices of cake.
The gentleman, who was known by fans and social media followers alike, as Dr Ganja (doesn’t take much to be a Dr these days), had his house in Kampung Delek Dalam in Klang, Selangor, raided by the Federal Narcotics Criminal Investigation Department. Arrested alongside the man were his 35-year old Indonesian wife and a 38-year old accomplice.
Officers claim that the man touted his sundry products as cures for various illnesses that included, but were not limited to, stage IV lung cancer.
“The man had garnered a following on social media by promoting the benefits of ganja and hemp seeds,” said deputy director DCP Datuk Kang Chez Chiang. “Those who trusted him went to his house to buy his ganja-based products.”
Dr Ganja believed that he was helping people, and would even give his products away free to those who were less fortunate, and could not afford it. He advertised his products and services on Instagram, using the handle @greencarecure. Among the photos on his page were those of his terminally ill patients who he claimed to be curing using bhang, a liquid infused with ganja. He called the page the “Gentlemen Cannabis Club.” GCC. We like that.
The police haul included 70 chocolate bars, 66 bottles of honey, 21 bottles of margarine, 9 bottles of milk and those two pieces of cake. All had a ganja base, and are valued at RM16,000. Also seized were 18 ganja plants, 4kg of powders believed to be ganja, and 72kg of ganja seeds
Police say that Dr Ganja had “established his practice” over the last 5 months.
May we pour one out, and light one up, for our fallen homies.
