Urine samples from the two men were analysed by the Health Sciences Authority and found to contain MDMA.<\/p>\n
Three segments of Dr Lee’s hair, each corresponding to different periods of time when he allegedly consumed drugs, were also found to contain MDMA and ketamine.<\/p>\n
Both men were represented by Ms Tania Chin.<\/p>\n
A witness who was at the party testified that he saw a foreigner crush a green ecstasy pill and placing it into a cup filled with liquid, which was then passed around.<\/p>\n
Another witness testified that an American had offered him a pill in the master bedroom.<\/p>\n
Dr Lee had said that he would not have expected a “benign birthday celebration”, which he had believed to be a “safe space” to have drugs.<\/p>\n
He had said in a statement that he felt light-headed and euphoric after consuming his first drink, comparing these sensations to how he had felt when taking drugs in Thailand.<\/p>\n
Despite this, he accepted two more drinks.<\/p>\n
Judge A Sangeetha said that such behaviour could hardly be described as that of an unsuspecting victim.<\/p>\n
Tan said he had three drinks that night, and saw men pouring liquid from blue bottles to plastic cups on a table.<\/p>\n
He took a drink from this table, noticing white residue at the bottom of the cup, which looked like crushed tablets.<\/p>\n
The judge said that Tan’s behaviour was consistent with a person who chose to consume a drink he had reason to suspect was laced.<\/p>\n
The prosecution sought between 12 and 15 months’ jail for both men.<\/p>\n
For consuming MDMA, they could have been jailed for between one year and 10 years, and fined up to S$20,000.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
