Sapmi, Sweden, Dec. 21, 2012 -- After spending six years in the Amazon jungle of Peru learning traditional healing techniques, Jungle Svonni returned home to Sweden only to face trumped-up charges for possession of a natural plant that is entirely legal in his country.

News of his arrest has sparked an online flurry of support with friends and supporters around the world quickly launching an online petition through the Web site causes.com that calls on the Swedish government to drop all charges immediately. The petition is gaining hundreds of signatures a day.
