New Zealand charity accidentally distributes methamphetamine, locally known as ‘P’ and “Shabu”.
A food bank in New Zealand, Auckland City Mission, who works with homeless people of the city, distributes drugs, accidentally. According to the details, a member of the city donated some candies, which were pineapple flavoured, and contained solid blocks of methamphetamine in it. Around 400 people donated parcels that day, Charity and Police are investigating to find the culprit.
The New Zealand Drug Foundation charity found after testing the lollies that they contained a potentially lethal three grams of methamphetamine.
“A common dose to swallow is between 10-25 milligrams, so this contaminated lolly contained up to 300 doses,” said foundation executive director Sarah Helm.
Auckland City Mission was alerted on Tuesday by a food bank client who reported a “funny-tasting” lolly. Staff tasted some of the remaining lollies and immediately contacted the authorities.
