Offences related to pervitin accounted for the highest percentage of drug-related crime (approximately 55–70%,
depending on the source of the data), followed by cannabis (approximately one third); the proportions of drug-related
offences associated with heroin and cocaine were below 5% each. Cannabis accounted for the highest percentage
(50–60%) of the offences involving drug possession for personal use, while pervitin was predominant as regards the
offences associated with the manufacturing or possession of an article for drug production, which corresponds with
the high level of occurrence and number of seizures of illegal pervitin laboratories (see also the chapter on Drug
Markets on p. 131); Table 9-3 to Table 9-5.
