Three patrons of Britain's first ever Dutch-style coffee house have been
arrested after a pro-cannabis demonstration.

The men were arrested after 40 demonstrators marched from the Dutch
Experience cafe in Stockport to the local police station.

The Laugh at the Law demonstration was organised to call for the
legalisation of cannabis.

Protesters were also showing their support for the Dutch Experience
cafe-owner Colin Davies, who has been remanded in custody following a raid
on the premises last week.

He faces charges of permitting premises to be used for the smoking of
cannabis, possessing cannabis with intent to supply, possessing a
controlled drug and being concerned with the supply of cannabis.

The three men arrested for possession of cannabis by Greater Manchester
police were a 24-year-old from Somerset, a 21-year-old from Stockport and a
29-year-old from Stretford, Greater Manchester.
