Cole Cold Pear-D has been linked to the death of one person in Southampton and is the subject of an ongoing investigation by Hampshire Constabulary.
It’s unclear at this point whether more bottles of the product have been distributed in the UK, and members of the public are being advised not to consume the beverage and to take any found bottles to their local police station.
The manufacturer of the drink, SM Jaleel & Co Ltd, Otaheite, Trinidad, has stated that it does not export Pear-D to the UK.
