Bernama, a Malaysian news agency, reported that some Kelantanese teenagers exchanged sexual intercourse with their girlfriends for psychotropic pills (or 'pil kuda' in local lingo).
These activities have been blamed for the increase in sexual crimes in the northern Malaysian state.
State police deputy chief Senior Assistant Commissioner Mazlan Lazim explained that teenage addicts would make such offers to drug peddlers for their supply of pills.
"Such alarming activity also involved schoolboys aged between 14 and 16, who already had sex with their girlfriends," he said.
