"Our products have been extensively tested and all carry a certificate. We do not sell drugs at all, quite the contrary," the manager of the store, who would like to stay anonymous, said to Het Nieuwsblad.
The mayor of Hasselt, Steven Vandeput (N-VA), was not very happy with the arrival of the shop. "We had expected some kind of police check at the opening, but no police oficers were there," the manager said. "Whoever wants to check us, is absolutely welcome. We have nothing to hide. Everything that happens here is perfectly legal," he added.Related News: Medicinal cannabis: Canadian producer sets up shop in Europe
