Dozens of drug dealers and users were caught by police officers at the festivals that ended over the weekend - Saga in Bucharest, NeverSea in Constanta and Vibe in Targu Mures.

Reporter: Cristian Bacain - "Doctors intervened in almost 850 cases - most of them with symptoms of drug or alcohol intoxication. There were also two serious cases that needed transportation to emergency units, both related to the consumption of banned substances and alcohol."

A total of 220 thousand people, many of them minors, attended the events, which took place over several days. The latter were granted access on the basis of a paper called "parental consent", presented to the guards at the entrance, but not checked by anyone to see if it was genuine. Law enforcement caught 81 people with drugs - for consumption or sale. The most common types of controlled substances were marijuana, ecstasy, cocaine, crystal meth, amphetamine, ketamine and LSD.
