AKARTA: A joint team set up by the Jakarta administration raided on Wednesday illegal drug vendors in a number of spots in the city, confiscating 700 fake Viagra pills.
Officials from the East Jakarta Health Agency, Public Order Office and the Food and Drug Monitoring Agency (BPOM) raided 20 illegal drug stores in a number of spots Wednesday including on Jl. Pemuda, Jl. Dewi Sartika, Jl. I Gusti Ngurah Rai and Jl. Raya Bekasi.
The raids were conducted from information given by locals who became suspicious after learning that the “blue pills” were offered at a discount price.
East Jakarta Health Agency head Yenuarti said as quoted by tempointeraktif.com that the fake Viagra pills could have side effects. Yenuarti said the pill had also been abused by locals to engage in promiscuous activities.
“We will conduct a raid every month,” she said. — JP
