Golf betting ring drugs rival's coffee, swindles $75,000
Seoul's Namdaemun Police Station has sent a 60-year-old suspect, identified as A, to the Seoul Central Prosecutors' Office on charges of narcotics law violations and fraud, along with two accomplices, B and C, who were released without detention. The group allegedly spiked a rival's coffee with psychotropic drugs during a betting golf match at a course in Gyeonggi Province in July, impairing the victim's judgment to win and swindle 75 million won (about $75,000). Yonhap reports the suspects were transferred on October 30, with police announcing the case on November 1. Korean media coverage focuses on the audacity of the scheme, with Maeil Business Newspaper noting the large stakes involved, while Dong-A Ilbo details how the drugs were slipped into the coffee while the victim was away.
