The student secretly from his parents through the Internet began to cooperate with the drug shop as a courier. He was instructed to make a cache with a prohibited substance, having previously taken the goods in a certain place. The novice distributor did not have time to fulfill the task: his activities were stopped by the guards, seizing several doses of mephedrone.

According to the teenager, who has tried such substances himself, he is aware of the consequences of breaking the law: this was told at the school by juvenile inspectors.

For actions aimed at selling drugs, criminal liability comes from 14 years.
