Chandigarh, January 4
This man in the United Kingdom landed in jail for his wacky way of decorating the Christmas tree. Marvin Porcelli, a drug dealer, decorated the Christmas tree with packets of real drugs and cash.
Marvin also took photos of the Christmas tree decorations on his mobile phone. This is where he landed into trouble. The images were eventually retrieved by the police, who added them to a huge pile of evidence proving his involvement in a major narcotics ring.
The police in Merseyside in northwest England said Porcelli was arrested as part of a bigger operation, named Overboard. The police shared the information on Twitter.

The thread also had some lessons for potential drug traffickers.
The police said when people start getting high on drugs, their taste in festive home design “goes out of the window”. In another tweet, the police shared the photo of the Christmas tree with the cash and drug packets.
