The largest distributor of generic viagra in India got 30 years prision for shipping to the USA in 2004ish.



Lastly, I prefer to treat people I work with with respect both in salary and manners. I currently have 22 staff and most have been with me over 6 years.
kamagra is made by ajanta pharma...they are huge producers and pfizer lost to them...the guy that got 30 years in your example probably got busted for smuggling and continuing a criminal enterprise and not IP theft...

do you have a link for this story? I used to sell generic viagra from china back in the day, If you can find the story I would be very interested in reading...

in the very unlikely scenario that they decide to rip him off AND use their real name, a contract would be the end of them...but if they use a fictive name there is little that can be done...
