Han Seo-hee, a former singer trainee who revealed that singer B.I had purchased drugs, was handed over to trial for drug use.
According to a media on the 9th, the Seongnam Branch of the Suwon District Prosecutor's Office was indicted without detention on charges of violating the Narcotics Management Act, and the first trial will be held this afternoon.
In July of last year, Han Seo-hee was detained and released from probation after a urine test conducted by the probation office unexpectedly tested positive for psychotropic drugs such as methamphetamine (methamphetamine) and amphetamine. Prosecutors took steps to cancel Han Seo-hee's probation, but Han Seo-hee claimed a urine test error, and the hair test was negative.
However, it is said that the prosecution conducted an investigation into Han Seo-hee and sent him to trial without detention. As Han Seo-hee is accused of using drugs during the probation period, the trial result is drawing more attention.
Previously, Seo-hee Han was sentenced to 3 years in prison and 4 years of probation for purchasing 90g of cannabis 4 times from July to December 2016 and smoking 7 times at her home in Jung-gu, Seoul.
Last year, Han Seo-hee became a hot topic when she reported that B.I, a former iKON member, was on the line of investigation on drug charges, but the police did not properly investigate B.I and received threats from B.I's agency, YG Entertainment.
