Man Jailed for 25 Years In Dubai Over Small Amount of CBD Vape Oil

The United Arab Emirates has a track record of dishing out super-harsh drug penalties.

 

A 24-year-old British football coach has been jailed for 25 years in Dubai after police found a small amount of CBD vape oil in his car. 

Billy Hood claims he was forced to sign a false confession to trafficking the drug, which is legal to vape in the UK and is usually used for treating pain. 

Although it does not get you high, CBD, a chemical found in cannabis, is illegal in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) because it contains trace elements of THC, the psychoactive component of weed.
