Shocking ‘girlfriends for pills’ exchange
KOTA BARU: Some teenage drug addicts are offering their girlfriends, including schoolgirls, to drug peddlers for a night of passion in exchange for pil kuda (psychotropic pills). This “business transaction” has been cited as a reason for a rise in sexual crimes in Kelantan.
State deputy police chief Senior Asst Comm Mazlan Lazim said investigations revealed that teenagers hooked on pil kuda, offered their girlfriends to drug peddlers for a night of sex.
In return, the teenagers would be given their supply of the pills, he said. “Such an alarming activity also involved schoolboys aged between 14 and 16, who have already had sex with their girlfriends,” SAC Mazlan told reporters yesterday.
Between January and Dec 12, he said 296 rape cases were reported to the police including the “exchange” of girlfriends for a supply of pil kuda. He urged parents to monitor their daughters’ activities to prevent them from getting involved with drug addicts. — Bernama
