The searches carried out at the beginning of August 2022 in this former nightclub which was also a swingers club, the Chalet, route d’Eghezée in Onoz, did not go unnoticed. Without going into details, secrecy of the investigation requires the prosecution then mentioned a cannabis plantation. The case landed this Thursday before the Namur criminal court. Only 2 of the three defendants were present. The hidden side of the iceberg, according to the Seminara substitute. “It is generally the “gardeners” who are arrested on the scene as was the case. 2,157 plants had been cultivated by this criminal association made up of Albanian nationals, whose masterminds were not apprehended. The crop had been in place since June 3, 2022 and no harvest could be carried out.”
It was Ores who attracted the attention of the police following an abnormally high consumption of electricity there. A suspicious cable allowing illegal connection to the electricity network was quickly discovered. The cannabis plants were divided into 4 cultivation rooms and the gardener lived in the attic; he had to receive 5,000 euros when harvesting the cannabis. When questioned, one of the defendants remains vague: “I lent my bank card and my car, I shouldn’t have.” The second defendant present affirms that he does not know any of the protagonists in the case.
3 years in prison are required against the gardener, 5 years in prison and a fine of 1000 euros are requested for the other two. The lawyers for the last two defendants cite a poorly structured investigation and plead for acquittal.
