There is no such thing as "fake LSD". It's either LSD or it isn't. There are probably people selling some other chemical with the claim that it is LSD. Furthermore there have been ZERO documented deaths from LSD overdose. I am not condoning the use of the drug. I am just pointing out that there is something far more sinister going on here with drug dealers selling was is probably an experimental pharmaceutical on unsuspecting users. We need more drug education, especially one involving harm reduction and proper drug identification in the Maldives. I hope the actual chemical can be identified so people will know to identify it and its effects and know how to stay away from it.
Its a Democracy we have here in the Maldives. If we want to murder some one or use LSD, MDP or DRP we should be able to use it. If we want to use and abuse substance we should be able to do it.
Isnt that what Mordiss calls 'our democracy'.
My LSD to me. Our LSD to us. Right Imran??
What the hell is Riyaz smoking?
LSD on it's own cannot cause death. It may cause hallucination and psychosis but that's when it's mixed in with other chemicals or drugs.
And how do I know this? Because I read it on Wikipedia which is the most basic form of research on anything. I expect trained POLICE OFFICER'S to be more up to date with information like this than an ordinary citizen like myself.
Blaming this on LSD (not that I'm advocating it's use, mind you) is a bad idea. The two people who were confirmed using LSD were alive.
The person who claimed that Nazeef was taking LSD were his friends but there is nothing said in the article that confirms that he LSD was the cause. I would wait until we get some kind report on the cause of death. Most likely, the boy mixed LSD with some other drug and that caused some kind of reaction that killed him.
There is no word yet on what killed the other two men either but I would bet that given that they died in the Gaafu Alif Atoll, that they must have gotten the same drug.
Good, good. Let the deaths keep coming. This is a good weeding out of those who aren't fit enough to survive in Maldivian society.
Pure Darwinism at work here.
Fake LSD is like saying fake Islam. It's either Islam or something else.
This is really bullshit. How can you be tested positive for LSD after using "FAKE" LSD???. Does the Police have test kits for "FAKE" LSD. You can't arrest anybody for taking "FAKE" drugs, cos like fake currency, it is not the real thing. Was any TOXICOLOGY blood test done by the medical authorities??? If yes, what is the toxic chemical found in the blood of the deceased? LSD is not toxic and very rarely users get OD. My guess is most probably Heroin laced with Arsenic (Dhivehi=kokadi)or a Cyanide compound maybe the culprit. Arsenic is found in rat poison and Potassium Cyanide is available. The other probability is liquid Ketamine which is a powerful general anesthetic used commonly to tranquilize large animals. Heroin laced with Ketamine is sold in Maldives as "Vaanuvaa" and recently Mephedrone or "Meow Meow" crystal is sold in Maldives. This designer drug is produced in China and the local users still not very familiar with the drug tend to misuse it mostly in IV use. The sad thing is that the authorities who are responsible to control these drugs are more ignorant,inefficient and corrupt.
""Fake LSD"" lol, riyaz got controll of fake lsd, and got faked, were did he learn all this? Never heard of fake LSD...Riyaz shoul get some real LSD imorted to maldives to keep the deaths from fake LSD,
It was very likely a chemical from the "nbome" series, which have been put onto blotter paper and passed off as LSD in recent times. They are active in the microgram range just as LSD is, except they appear to me much more harmful & toxic than LSD (LSD is actually physically harmless). Seizures & deaths have been reported.
The NBOMe series of chemicals are primarily N-o-methoxybenzyl analogs of the 2C-X family of phenethylamines, and are 5-HT2A (serotonin 2A) receptor agonists. A few are amphetamine analogs. With few exceptions (e.g. mescaline-NBOMe), compounds in this group are active at verly low sub-milligram doses. These chemicals have nearly no history of human use prior to 2010 when they first became available online.
LSD= love, sex and death
LSD=lets save democracy
LSD=Lets sing and dance
LSD=Loser suck death
This is nothing
You have fake dangerous Islam in the Maldives to worry about.
It amuses me as a non drug taking hindu how muslims shun alcohol as being unislamic yet embrace narcotics in a big way.
Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Pakistan, Somalia, Iran and Afghanistan all have serious social problems with drug abuse. Heroin seems to be the recreational drug of choice for muslims......yet I have not seen any serious attempt to control the availabilty of narcotics in muslim countries as compared to alcohol......Why is this?
Maldives......100% muslim no less......also has a serious drugs problem with an addict in every family!!
Does any work get done in Maldives?......or is everyone high as a kite on brown sugar, Dunlop glue, hash oil and LSD?......Overcrowded Male must be junkie paradise with narcotics available everywhere.
I guess if I lived in a boring, repressive and intolerant country too, I would be going behind the shed and injecting jannat into my veins.
You dumb retards need to get a life.
LSD can not stop your heart and you cannot OD from it. These people were likely told they were buying LSD and sold something else.
Such a sad story.
Know your body-know your mind-know your substance-know your source.
