The Leipzig Regional Court has convicted Maximilian S., who became known as the "nursery dealer", and three accomplices for drug trafficking. Another defendant, who is already in custody, was sentenced on Wednesday to a total prison sentence of five years and eleven months.
Two other defendants aided and abetted. One of the men was sentenced to ten months in prison on probation. The public prosecutor's office announced its intention to appeal the verdict in order to obtain further clarification of the case.
