A provision of the law kicked in touch by the "Docta" who, questioned, replied that they have families to feed, children to go to school and bills to pay. The government through the Minister of Public Health (MINSANTE) continues to draw the attention of the populations to the danger that street drugs pose to their state of health and well-being.
