Drug-laced coffee golf scam ring sent to prosecutors

Seoul's Namdaemun Police Station has sent a ring of three suspects to prosecutors on charges of violating the Narcotics Control Act and fraud, after they allegedly spiked a victim's coffee with psychotropic drugs during a betting golf match in Gyeonggi Province in July and swindled 75 million won. One suspect, a man in his 60s, was arrested and sent to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office on Oct. 30, while two accomplices were sent without arrest, according to Dong-A Ilbo and Kyunghyang Shinmun reports on Nov. 1. The scheme involved drugging the victim to impair judgment during the money-wagering game.
