Is Pink Cocaine / Tusi legal in Indonesia?
- Legal status
- Pink cocaine (tusi) is not scheduled as such; it is a variable mixture (typically ketamine + MDMA) prosecuted through its constituents — Indonesia lists MDMA as a Golongan I (Category I) narcotic with no therapeutic use under Narcotics Law No. 35 of 2009 while ketamine is a non-narcotic controlled medicine, and the law reaches any preparation containing a narcotic. Because the blend varies batch to batch, exposure follows the most-severely-controlled component, so an MDMA-containing tusi sample carries Golongan I capital exposure.
- Consequences if caught
- An MDMA-positive mixture is a Category I narcotics offence where large-scale trafficking is death-eligible under Law 35/2009; a ketamine-only mixture is a controlled-medicine offence carrying lesser penalties.
- If prescribed or medical
- No lawful supply of the mixture; ketamine is a controlled medicine, whereas MDMA is a Golongan I narcotic with no therapeutic use.
- Documentation
- Sold as a party powder of unknown makeup; because the blend varies batch to batch, buyers cannot know whether death-eligible MDMA is present, so capital-level legal exposure is unknowable at purchase.
