Fake Ecstacy

It was a very big deal in july when police claimed to have found a massive ecstasy manufacturing operation at a company called target data pro in the export processing park. After 5 days of counting, police claim to have found 228 thousand ecstasy pills. It was an incredible bust, and now it turns out that it is just that... an incredible bust because the pills were not ecstasy. Tests conducted in the United States on batch samples show no proof that the pills were ecstasy, scientifically known as MDMA. So how could the Belizean authorities have made such a major gaffe? Well, we're still trying to figure that one out, but it seems the pills had a popular design for ecstasy pills, which is the playboy logo. But looks like it, isn't quite it, and now the supreme court has entered the picture to order the police to return all the drugs that are not controlled substances to Target Data Pro. This includes prescription drugs such as Viagra, Xanax, Didirex, and Valium. That's a request local authorities are still stalling on as they say they now want to charge Target's owners for mislabeling the drugs - a far less serious offence than trafficking in a controlled substance.
In a related matter, Target's attorney Dean Barrow also appeared before chief justice Abadulai Conteh yesterday as the financial intelligence unit moved to freeze accounts connected to target data pro director Jared Wheat. According to U.S. authorities, these accounts are the product of money laundering. The chief justice again dismissed the freeze order, that had already been dismissed earlier in the month by justice Lucas. Even with this, we are told, the finanical intelligence unit and the DPP's office, both eager to please their US counterparts, are still trying to seize the accounts.
