A French far-left lawmaker admitted on Tuesday to having been caught by police after purchasing a synthetic drug from an underage supplier in a street deal, earning him a sharp rebuke from France’s law-and-order interior minister.

Andy Kerbrat, 34, a member of parliament for the France Unbowed (LFI) party was picked up by police on October 17 carrying 1.35 grams of 3-Methylmethcathinone, prosecutors said.

The teenage seller had one gram of the synthetic drug on him, as well as 200 euros (US$216) in cash, they added.

3-MMC is a designer drug intended to mimic the effects of cocaine at about half the street price.

Kerbrat, who was not detained, is being investigated for illicit narcotics use.

Posting his admission on social media, Kerbrat said he would seek medical attention for his addiction.
