Is Pink Cocaine / Tusi legal in South Sudan?
Also known as: tucibi, tusibi, tuci
- Legal status
- Pink cocaine (tusi) is not scheduled as such; it is a variable mixture (typically ketamine + MDMA) prosecuted through its constituents, South Sudan controls MDMA under the Penal Code Act, 2008, which 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 can carry capital exposure for high-level trafficking.
- Consequences if caught
- An MDMA-positive mixture engages the Penal Code Act 2008, where high-level/aggravated drug trafficking is a capital offence while lower-level offences and personal-use possession draw imprisonment.
- If prescribed or medical
- No lawful supply of the mixture; MDMA has no accepted medical use, and ketamine, where present, is a controlled medicine.
- Documentation
- Sold as a party powder of unknown makeup; because the blend varies batch to batch, buyers and travellers cannot know whether death-eligible MDMA is present, so legal exposure under the Penal Code Act is unknowable at purchase.
- loc.gov
- No power that moves a narcotics list is established for South Sudan in the sources cited above, which rest on the Penal Code Act 2008 and the Drug and Food Control Authority Act 2012 rather than on a scheduling regime, and no version of any list was recorded when this cell was authored on 14 July 2026. That does not rule out a later amendment made or commenced since.
