YAKUTSK, December 24 (RIA Novosti) - A criminal case has been launched against two men caught picking cannabis in a snow-covered field in the northeastern Siberian republic of Yakutia, a drug police spokesman said on Wednesday.

"Despite vigorous cold, reaching minus 52 degrees Celsius [minus 62 degrees Fahrenheit] that day, the two buddies managed to harvest two bags of cannabis with a total weight of nearly three kg [6.6 lbs]," the source said.
