Police warn party-goers of dangerous drug batch

The NSW state crime command drug squad has released a statement warning of two potentially dangerous batches of ecstasy which may be circulating in NSW. Earlier this month the police seized a number of pills with high levels of 251-NBOMe – an extremely potent hallucinogenic which has been linked to a number of deaths in Australia and overseas.
The hallucinogen was the primary ingredient in a tablet ingested by Killara teen, Henry Kwan, when he jumped to his death from a balcony in June.
The drug has been outlawed in NSW since September but large batches of pills containing the drug were recently seized in raids in Lidcombe and Bella Vista. Police believe the pills were planned to have been sold as ecstasy.
The pills have distinctive markings. One batch of tablets is off-white, marked with a letter L intersecting with a letter V. The other is of speckled peach colured pills marked with a lightning bolt.
Detective Superintendent Bingham said people needed to be aware that when it comes to illicit and synthetic drugs, there is no way of knowing exactly what you are consuming.
“There’s no quality control in the production of illicit and synthetic drugs,” Detective Superintendent Bingham said.
“The people who purchased these tablets would have been expecting an ecstasy-like effect.
“However, based on our testing, the effect would have been far more hallucinatory and could very well have resulted in severe psychotic episodes, leading to reckless behaviour and self-harm.
The superintendant said anyone considering exoerimenting with drugs should think twice.
“Anyone who is considering experimenting with illicit or synthetic drugs should stop to consider the possible consequences and not do it. It’s a gamble with your life that’s just not worth taking.”
