New initiatives aim to comply with both domestic and international norms
The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kyrgyzstan has proposed amendments to the list of narcotic and psychotropic substances, their analogs, and precursors that are subject to control. The draft law has already been submitted for public discussion.
This project has been developed in accordance with the requirements of the Criminal Code and the Code of Administrative Offenses, as well as to fulfill the international obligations undertaken by Kyrgyzstan under the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs of 1961, the Convention on Psychotropic Substances of 1971, and the UN Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances of 1988.
It is planned to supplement several existing lists. Four new substances will be included in List I of narcotic substances under special control: N-pyrrolidino protonitazene, N-pyrrolidino metonitazene, N-desethyl-isotonitazene, and etonitazepipn. Hexahydrocannabinol (HHC) and lisdexamfetamine will be added to List II of psychotropic substances. List III will be supplemented with carisoprodol.
It is also proposed to expand the list of drug and psychotropic substance analogs by 14 items, including 4-BMC (brefedron), ADB-INACA, MDMB-INACA, MDPHP, and other synthetic compounds.
