The Cannabis Association of Finland has raised alarm over cannabis products being sold in Koivukylä, Vantaa, stating that these products may be contaminated with harmful materials. According to the association's chairman, Mika Luoma-aho, information received suggests that glass shards have been mixed into the cannabis to artificially increase its weight. This alarming revelation has prompted the association to advise consumers against smoking the cannabis in question, highlighting the potential health risks involved.

Luoma-aho conveyed that smoking this contaminated cannabis could lead to serious health consequences, including bleeding, tightness in breathing, vague pain, and tingling sensations. Consequently, he has strongly urged the public to refrain from using these products and to dispose of them properly to avoid any health hazards. The warning reflects growing concerns over product safety in the cannabis market, particularly as regulations and controls evolve in Finland.

The Cannabis Association of Finland advocates for the decriminalization of cannabis use and possession, aiming to promote responsible usage and education about cannabis products. This incident underscores the challenges faced in ensuring product safety in an unregulated market and highlights the importance of consumer awareness in the context of cannabis legislation in Finland.
