WEST LA PHARMACY OWNERS ACCUSED OF DRUG TRAFFICKING

Two brothers who are accused of owning a bogus pharmacy in West Los Angeles are in custody for allegedly using their store to distribute prescription drugs to the black market, Department of Justice officials said.

Berry Kabov, 44, and Dalibor "Dabo" Kabov, 32, were arrested Thursday morning on federal drug trafficking and money laundering charges as operators of the Global Compounding Pharmacy in the 1500 block of Purdue Avenue.

Federal officials said the two Brentwood men were charged in a 40-count indictment due to allegedly using their location to obtain and distribute large quantities of prescription narcotics, including OxyContin and anabolic steroids.
