Supreme Court allows confiscation of khat plant material as proceeds of crime despite lack of direct sale evidence.

The Supreme Court of Finland allowed the confiscation of khat plant material seized from the defendant, ruling it constituted proceeds of crime. Although the defendant argued no direct sale occurred, the court found the material's possession for the purpose of drug trafficking rendered it illicit gains. The decision establishes that possession of controlled substances intended for trafficking qualifies as proceeds of crime regardless of proven sales.
