MFH International Enterprise Inc. faces six charges under the Food and Drugs Act for allegedly selling Cialis and Viagra 'disguised' as herbal sexual enhancements at adult stores in Burnaby, Richmond and Vancouver.
An undercover Health Canada operation at a Burnaby sex shop led to criminal charges against a company now on trial for allegedly selling prescription erectile dysfunction drugs disguised as natural herbal health products.
MFH's sole director Duo Zhang was also originally charged but those charges were stayed last September.The company has pleaded not guilty to all charges. When Crown prosecutor Sharon Steele asked Cheng if anyone at the store had given him any information about the contents of the product or told him it contained Cialis or Viagra, he said no.
Cheng said he got the test results on Feb. 10 and Health Canada raided three MFH retail locations in Burnaby, Richmond and Vancouver eight days later. During cross-examination, however, Cheng acknowledged the investigation hadn't turned up any other reports of adverse effects from Harmony and there was no other information about who had made the complaints at the Burnaby store or whether they had been made by two different people.
Trial continues The eight-day trial is scheduled to continue through Friday and then resume Oct. 17 to 20.
