This club had been visited the previous evening by some of the people who were in the apartment at the time of the police officer’s fall.

The police believe that they gathered here first and then moved to the apartment where the accident occurred and took drugs as a group.

However, during the police investigation, it was discovered that the club was not just a meeting place, but one of the drug purchase routes.

Among the 16 attendees of the apartment meeting, a clue came out that Mr. A, an employee of a large company, bought drugs at this club.

It is said that a statement came out that Mr. A purchased hundreds of thousands of won worth of drugs in front of the club bathroom and also administered them on the spot.

The police secured CCTV in front of the club’s restroom in the search and seizure to check whether Mr. A’s activities were recorded on the day.

We are also analyzing whether there are suspicious scenes of people visiting the club buying drugs.

The apartment meeting attendees were found to have met regularly at the club, and police are investigating the possibility that the club was used as a place to contact drug suppliers.

It is true that the club was seized, but it has been revealed that it does not know whether drugs are used or traded in the club.
