Police in Anhui province are investigating a case involving synthetic drugs after an Australian father went undercover as a buyer to drug dens in Hefei, the provincial capital, and exposed the deal on the Australian edition of 60 Minutes.
Rodney Bridge's undercover trip was aired on Sunday night and drew wide attention. Rodney's 16-year-old son jumped to his death after he took 25I-NBOMe, a chemical originally produced for medical imaging purposes that has also been used as a psychedelic drug.
The chemical, which is now illegal in Australia, was reportedly produced in China, where there is no law against it.
