Mexico decriminalises small-scale drugs

Mexico has enacted a controversial law that decriminalises the possession of small amounts of marijuana, cocaine and heroin.

The law defines "personal use" amounts for those drugs, as well as LSD and methamphetamines.

people found with those amounts will not face criminal prosecution, but that if caught a third time they will be required to complete treatment programs.
