Mexico City, (EFE) .- The Government of Mexico City reported the transfer of the points for the playful consumption of marijuana, called points 4:20, after receiving citizen complaints about the illegal sale and consumption of substances in the areas designated as tolerance spaces for the use of cannabis individually, responsible and in accordance with the law.
The head of government of the capital, Clara Brugada, said that after the retirement of two camps for cannabis consumption on Monday, a dialogue with the pro -cannabis groups was filed, thus achieving relocation.
“The objective is that other types of crimes are not generated in these spaces; that is, guaranteeing spaces and places that meet rules and that do not become a problem,” Brugada said.
The Secretary of the Local Government, César Cravioto, explained that an agreement was signed with three groups to ensure that there is no sale or exchange of cannabis, that the consumption of other substances is not allowed nor do the passers -by of said areas are bothers.
The new points 4:20 will be located in the Plaza de la Concepción, on Belisario Domínguez and central axis, and in the José Saramago reading square, in front of the interior circuit and Paseo de la Reforma.
Cravioto pointed out that the site located on the outskirts of the Senate will remain “only as an informative space, but not for marijuana consumption.”
“The three points where there were a lot of people leaving the Hidalgo Metro, in the Estela de Luz, at the entrance of Chapultepec, and in Juárez Avenue; they were three points very busy by people, and in the other spaces we believe that coexistence between citizens and the consumers themselves can occur otherwise,” said the secretary, in a statement.
Finally, Cravioto warned that a person from the Government Secretariat will be responsible for permanently verifying that these agreements are fulfilled at each point, “since the time of stay, how many people may be, the non -consumption of other substances and the limitation of cannabis possession in these areas.”
In 2021, the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation declared unconstitutional the prohibition of the consumption and marketing of marijuana for recreational or recreational purposes, jurisprudence that allows the operation of the areas of group consumption.
