Singapore chillies free of cannabis
Ban lifted, no THC was found

June 27 2007

Singapore - A brand of chilli peppers will soon be back on retail shelves in Singapore after authorities lifted their ban, officials said on Wednesday.

The Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) told supermarkets to withhold sales of S&B Assorted Chili Pepper last week following reports that the Hong Kong government found traces of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).

THC is a psychoactive substance found in cannabis.

No cannabis seeds or THC were detected in the AVA's investigation. - Sapa-dpa
