Uruguay become the first country to legalises sale and production of cannabis



Uruguay has become the first country in the world to legalise marijuana after passing a law which allows the production, sale and use of the drug
.

Last night hundreds of cannabis-smoking supporters cheered and set off fireworks as they celebrated the new legislation in the centre of the capital, Montevideo.
The law permits both the large-scale distribution of marijuana and the growing of small amounts by individuals - although it will be tightly controlled by the country's Left-wing government.
