Is Pink Cocaine / Tusi legal in Malaysia?
- Legal status
- Pink cocaine (tusi) is not scheduled as such; it is a variable mixture (typically ketamine + MDMA) prosecuted through its constituents — Malaysia lists MDMA as a dangerous drug under the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 while ketamine is a psychotropic substance under the Poisons Act 1952 (not a scheduled dangerous drug), and drug law reaches any preparation containing a controlled substance. Because the blend varies batch to batch, exposure follows the most-severely-controlled component, so an MDMA-containing tusi sample carries the Dangerous Drugs Act's capital trafficking exposure.
- Consequences if caught
- An MDMA-positive mixture is a dangerous-drug offence where trafficking above the statutory threshold engages s.39B (death or life imprisonment plus caning); a ketamine-only mixture is a lesser Poisons Act psychotropic offence.
- If prescribed or medical
- No lawful supply of the mixture; ketamine is a Poisons Act psychotropic medicine, whereas MDMA is a dangerous drug with no accepted medical 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.
