What is even more deplorable is the lack of professional equipment in the republic to detect traces of synthetic drugs in the human body. Despite the high demand for this technology, there is no talk of purchasing this equipment yet. Meanwhile, taking advantage of this gap, quite a number of drug addicts today work in the public service and in law enforcement agencies. It is for this category that the appearance of specialized equipment is comparable to irreversible consequences, and, as a consequence, the end of a working career. Nevertheless, preventive rapid tests in government agencies and some law enforcement structures have long outlived their usefulness, being at the same time an ineffective way to solve problems.
Official statistics, of course, are not comparable to the real state of affairs. It is inappropriate for 30 detectives to travel to work when the supervising chief seconded to the region does not show interest in expanding the range of anti-drug work.
In the end, a good report from a specialist assigned to the outback is the key to a successful promotion and transfer to the mainland.
