Published by Statista Research Department, Sep 4, 2024
The monthly number of crimes and offenses related to drug use varied greatly between January 2015 and August 2022. There is a certain periodicity to drug enforcement. March is the month when law enforcement records the most cases in a year. The lowest number was recorded in April 2020, during the containment of the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak.
At the beginning of 2021, President Emmanuel Macron and his Minister of the Interior, Gérald Darmanin launched a vast repressive plan against the use and sale of illegal drugs in France. In March 2022, the number of crimes was the highest recorded in France since 2015.
