Is Pink Cocaine / Tusi legal in Brunei?
- Legal status
- Pink cocaine (tusi) is not scheduled as such; it is a variable mixture (typically ketamine + MDMA) prosecuted through its constituents — Brunei controls ketamine as a Class B controlled drug and MDMA as a controlled drug under the Misuse of Drugs Act (Cap. 27), which reaches any preparation containing a controlled drug. Because the blend varies batch to batch, exposure follows the most-severely-controlled component; neither constituent is listed among the capital Second-Schedule thresholds, so tusi is not death-eligible here.
- Consequences if caught
- Possession, consumption and trafficking are serious offences carrying imprisonment, caning and fines under the Misuse of Drugs Act — but because neither constituent appears in the capital Second Schedule, the mandatory death penalty does not attach.
- If prescribed or medical
- No lawful supply of the mixture; ketamine is a Class B controlled medicine, while MDMA has no accepted medical use.
- Documentation
- Sold as a party powder of unknown makeup; because the blend varies batch to batch, buyers and travellers cannot know its constituents, so heavy legal exposure under the Misuse of Drugs Act is unknowable at purchase.
Drug laws and enforcement change and vary within a country. This is not legal advice. Always confirm with Brunei’s embassy or official drug authority before traveling; penalties can be severe, including imprisonment.
