Pharmacy owners arrested for selling illegal drugs


The Jakarta Police have confiscated more than 160,000 medicines that lacked distribution permits and arrested two people for allegedly distributing the drugs.

Police spokesman Sr. Comr. Ketut Untung Yoga Ana said they suspected the drugs were substandard because they were not accompanied by the appropriate documentation from the Food and Drug Monitoring Agency on their boxes.
The medicines were mainly over the counter capsules and tablets.
