Iz Vijetnama stiže jedna, pomalo nevjerojatna i bizarna vijest. Naime, policija je tijekom premetačine skladišta u pokrajini Binh Duong zaplijenila na stotine tisuća rabljenih kondoma. Riječ je o pokrajini koja se nalazi na jugu te države, a vlanicu skladišta, 32-godišnju Pham Thi Thanh Ngoc, policija sumnjiči da je organizatorica recikliranja i vraćanja prezervatima na tržište koji su već bili rabljeni.
Binh Duong, Vietnam, September 19, 2020 (photographs) NEWS COPY - WITH PICTURES Police raided a warehouse in Vietnam that allegedly recycled used condoms to sell again. Shocked officers found an estimated 324,000 rubbers stuffed in sacks weighing 360kg at the shabby lock-up in Binh Duong province on September 19. The owner, Pham Thi Thanh Ngoc, 33, said she had been receiving the used condoms each month from a supplier, who is believed to have fished them out of hotel bins. Pham then hired workers to clean and dry the condoms before re-shaping them using different sized wooden dildos. The recycled condoms were repackaged before being resold at nearby hotels and market stalls within the province. Provincial Market Management director Tran Van Tung said the condoms had been confiscated to use as evidence. They will then be disposed of immediately after because they are considered hazardous medical waste. The government officer said: “Condoms are classified as medical items, so we will take a look at the several laws that the owner has broken.” The warehouse owner was taken to the police station in the town of Tan Uyen to be questioned while the condoms were confiscated. The owner will also be questioned about the condom’s supplier and distributor before being charged with a criminal offense. Statistics show that the country with a 97 million population uses at least 500 million condoms each year. However, re-using condoms could risk unwanted pregnancies and spread STDs.,Image: 559333657, License: Rights-managed, Restrictions: , Model Release: no
Zaplijenjeno je točno 324.000 korištenih kondoma koji su nakon "čišćenja" trebali biti preprodani, javlja portal Vnexplorer. Sve se zbilo prošle subote kada je policijski odjel iz Binh Duonga pronašao 360 kilograma korištenih kondoma i tisuće kondoma spakiranih i pripremljenih za prodaju, bez ikakvih oznaka brendova.
U početku, optužena 32-godišnjakinja nije htjela pokazati dokumente koji bi potvrdili legalno podrijetlo prezervativa. Tvrdila je da jednom mjesečno dobiva tisuće korištenih kondoma i to od "nepoznatog izvora" te da je njezin posao očistiti ih, osušiti i razvrstati kako bi izgledali "friško" i novo za kupce.
Više detalja o ovoj ilegalnoj operaciji nije objavljeno te se slučaj još istražuje.
