[Janet]

National Police at TFS Reina Sofía have arrested a man who arrived off a flight from the mainland for trying to smuggle half a kilo of heroin into Tenerife. The 45 year old man is said to be from Guinea Bissau originally, appeared to the police to be behaving suspiciously, and he became so nervous when they asked to checked his documents that they proceeded to search his luggage.

Amongst his clothes they found a package containing a brown substance which was later confirmed as heroin weighing 577 grams. The passport the man handed over was later found not to be his, and to a Portuguese passport which had been manipulated. He has now been handed over to the judicial authorities for processing, and is already in prison awaiting a court hearing. JA

I think I will just post those seeds Janet. 

In the UK, it's not illegal to have cannabis seeds - they can be used for bird food. It is illegal to let them germinate. Don't know about Spain.
