    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    A ketamine stash worth tens of millions of euros has been uncovered by Dutch police in its “largest ever” haul.

    Dozens of boxes containing two tonnes of the drug were discovered in a shed in Googweg, in Muiderberg, east of Amsterdam, following a tip-off, police say.

    Under Dutch laws, ketamine is not illegal, but it may not be traded or stored without registration.

    Police claim that ketamine trade is often “accompanied by other forms of crime, such as money laundering and possession of weapons”.

    Recreational use comes with risks such as memory problems, bladder issues, and muscle paralysis.

    Because ketamine is licensed to be used by doctors as an anaesthetic in some countries, it can be prescribed off-licence for depression.
