The prizes may seem a little tame compared to this Christmas raffle, busted in Murcia, Spain!
“Spanish police have arrested two suspected drug dealers who were raffling off a Christmas hamper containing cocaine, hashish, alcohol - and even a leg of cured ham, they said on Tuesday.
Officers discovered the unusual lottery when they raided a drug den allegedly operated by the two men, a Spaniard and an Argentinian, in the eastern city of Murcia, the police said in a statement.
On the wall they found a list of clients taking part in two raffles to win a "narco-hamper", one on Christmas Day and the other on Epiphany on January 6, a major holiday in Spain, it added.”
