    Default Coffeeshop Abraxas had to close

    It's sad that one of the best coffeeshops Abraxas had to close on 17th February. One of the employees had cocaine and MDMA in his/her pockets.

    From the website

    As you may well have heard, the Gemeente and the mayor of Amsterdam closed the doors of Abraxas coffeeshop on the 17th february.

    This is due to hard drugs being found on the premises during a coffeeshop police control in january.

    The drugs were found on the belongings of a new employee which had been partying the previous night and was the amount of 0.49gr cocaine and 1.23gr MDMA.

    Abraxas is now closed on the basis of Article 13b of the opium act which has been created in order to close drug houses. Part of the act states that a quantity of 0.5gr to 5gr could be classed as hard drugs being sold, delivered or present for this purpose. However this was not the case. Abraxas has had a zero tolerance policy on hard drugs since it opened its doors 24 years ago.

    All employees are explained to in detail that of the house rules which are repeated at every meeting, however we can not monitor these kind of issues by stripsearching the employees every shift. Because of this, 28 employees are out of work due to the mistake of 1 person

    Default Abraxas has already reopened

    Hey,

    My first post here (I'll make an intro post soon) but I just wanted to say Abraxas is apparently already reopened.

    It took 5 weeks and an appeal, but it has happened.

    At the moment I cannot post youtube links, apparently, so on youtube search:

    Abraxas Coffeeshop Re-Opens - Unfair Closure Appealed - Smokers Guide TV Amsterdam

    Good news this!
