The shopkeepers were taken into custody and charged with selling prescription drugs over the counter and selling sexual performance drugs without a license.

Another shopkeeper at NB Pharmacy, on Second Road, faced the same charges, plus charges of selling counterfeited drugs not licensed in the kingdom, as the “Viagra” allegedly sold to the foreign helper    was found to be fake, police said.
