A man was arrested by the police after he was in possession of an amount of the drug that could supply hundreds of people.
Dulmi was caught because he lost his wallet where he had put his drugs.
The Gangbuk Police Station in Seoul made an emergency arrest yesterday (16th) around 3 pm at a motel in Mia-dong, Gangbuk-gu, a man in his 50s and a man B in his 40s on charges of violating the Narcotics Control Act.
The police received a report about 9:00 pm on the 15th that 'there was a bag of white powder in the wallet I picked up in front of an officetel in Suyu-dong'.
The police identified Mr. A as the owner of the wallet based on the impression of clothing and vehicle number confirmed through the surrounding closed circuit TV (CCTV) video.
It is reported that B was arrested together after it was confirmed that he was using drugs at the scene when A was arrested.
The powder contained in the bag inside the wallet was about 20g, and the simple reagent test showed a positive test for methamphetamine, and the National Institute for Scientific Investigation is conducting a detailed examination.
Considering that one dose of methamphetamine is usually 0.03g, 20g is an amount that can be administered to about 666 people.
A and B were also reported to have tested positive for methamphetamine in a simple reagent test after their arrest.
A police official said, "We plan to apply for an arrest warrant for the suspects."
