KOTA BARU – Police will launch an investigation if the Health Ministry lodges a report on the illegal sale of ivermectin, said Deputy Inspector-General of Police Datuk Seri Mazlan Lazim.
He said the sale of the drug falls under the ministry’s purview, as per the Poisons Act 1952.
“We will assist if there is a report from MoH on any syndicate (selling ivermectin).
“We will conduct a probe,” he said after a working visit to the Kelantan police headquarters here today.
It was reported that sales of the drug for the purpose of treating Covid-19 have become increasingly aggressive on social media and the black market. – Bernama, August 19, 2021
