Cannabis is semi-legal in Spain via Cannabis clubs.
However wikipedia suggests "Cannabis plants that are located somewhere visible from the street/public place (ie. from balconies) are considered a serious administrative offense, which leads to a fine from 601 to 30,000€"
I guess the plants aren't visible from the street, but because a helicopter picked them up and were broadcast to the world the police were probably forced to act.
