Enforcers from the Health Ministry intercepted a shipment of 68,000 ‘herbal’ candies containing Viagra, before they were exported to Middle East and China

A spokesperson from the ministry said that they were being illegally manufactured in remote local factories and contained doses of medication several times stronger than normal Viagra.

The subsequent investigation showed that the manufacturers deliberately included Viagra in the mixture of the sweets.

The raids followed a tip-off from a source and several raids were carried out. The distributors of the sweets put misleading information on the packaging of the product , which claimed that the main ingredient of the sweets was plant extract and ginseng, in an attempt to mislead customers. If convicted, the offenders could face two years imprisonment or be given a significant fine.
