On June 5th, authorities in the Banglamung district cracked down on an unauthorized store selling kratom beverages. The action followed complaints from local residents worried about the potential dangers these drinks could pose to young people.

 

Upon reaching the shop, officials discovered teens selling the drinks. The officers confiscated a substantial amount of kratom leaves and over 150 bottles of the prepared juice.

 

The store owners, whose identities have not been released, are being charged under Section 6 of the Food Act for unlicensed sale of food containing kratom.

 

Although Kratom was decriminalized in 2022, it requires a license from the Thai FDA to be legally sold, specifically when mixed into beverages.
