What specific evidence proved prior drug use by the convicted individuals?

Question

Accepted Answer

Hair Sample Analysis Confirmed Prior Drug Consumption

Hair samples from the convicted doctor and his acquaintance, Rayson Lee Rui Sheng and Tan Li Ming, provided evidence of prior drug use. Analysis by the Health Sciences Authority detected both MDMA (Ecstasy) and ketamine in their hair. District Judge A. Sangeetha highlighted this finding, stating that the hair samples indicated a history of drug consumption, rendering their claims of having their drinks spiked not credible.
Drug Paraphernalia and Substances Found

During the police raid at the Sentosa villa on August 9, 2023, authorities discovered substances believed to be controlled drugs, including Ecstasy and ketamine. In addition to the drugs themselves, drug paraphernalia was also found at the scene. Lee and Tan were among 49 men arrested at the party.
Urine Tests Showed MDMA Presence

Beyond the evidence from hair samples, urine tests conducted on Lee and Tan also yielded positive results for MDMA. These findings further corroborated the consumption of the drug. The pair were convicted in June of one count each of drug consumption after a trial.
Defence Claims of Spiked Drinks Rejected

Lee and Tan had asserted that their drinks were spiked, a claim intended to dispute their culpability for drug consumption. However, prosecutors presented arguments that there was no credible evidence to substantiate this defence. District Judge A. Sangeetha ultimately found their accounts to be not credible.
