A Dutch court has fined the owner of the Netherlands' biggest cannabis-selling coffee shop 10m euros (£9m, $13.3m) for breaking drugs laws.
Owner Meddie Willemsen, who was tried along with 15 staff of the Checkpoint coffee shop in Terneuzen, was also sentenced to a 16-week prison term.
He was convicted for keeping more than the maximum tolerated amount of 500g (18oz) of drugs at the cafe.
Checkpoint served up to 3,000 people a day before being closed last year.
