I went into this in some detail in another thread (Please see: http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=9543.msg189546#msg189546) but essentially it boils down to Possession itself being the offence under the Misuse of Drugs Act - taking ownership of a package is generally accepted to entail taking ownership of its contents therefore if you accept contraband into your home or sign for them at a postal depot, you can be arrested.If you try to plead ignorance i.e innocent possession this is a defence but it is what is known as a rebuttable presumption i.e the onus will be upon you to demonstrate you were ignorant as to the contents of the package. Ultimately it will be for a jury to decide.V.Quote from: Duckman on May 21, 2012, 10:40 amQuote from: gustono on May 20, 2012, 10:15 pmHowever, you cannot be charged for being sent drugs, unless there is evidence to back up you were expecting them. Ideally we would all have a place we can store our drugs away from our receiving adress to counter-act this, and never to open a parcel as soon as you get it.As soon as the drugs arrive at your home, you are in possession.Whilst in transit, you are not in possession, but at some point they have to arrive.
