Two people, including a Chinese man who manufactured methamphetamine with raw materials disguised as wine and smuggled psychotropic drugs, were arrested by police.

From April 3 to 16, A manufactured about 5.6 kilograms of methamphetamine with liquid raw materials contained in wine bottles at a hotel in Incheon. This is equivalent to 18.6 billion won in market price, which can be administered to 186,000 people at the same time.
A was arrested on the 23rd of last month by a drug investigation team investigator who was lurking at the scene of a fake transaction while trying to sell about 2 kilograms of methamphetamine manufactured and completed with raw materials. The police explained that the wine bottle used by A is currently on the market, making it difficult to discern that it is a drug-related substance from the outside.
In addition, the police said they also arrested a Korean man in his 30s who is suspected of smuggling dextromethropane (aka rummy), a psychotropic drug. B was arrested on charges of violating the Special Price Act and the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act and handed over to the prosecution.
In February, B smuggled in Shenyang, China, the psychotropic drug Rummy mixed with milk tea stick products and pregabalin, which was concealed in famous Chinese liquor bottles. Rummy and Pregabalin are classified as drugs, but they are abused for hallucinations, and have been designated as psychotropic drugs and specialized drugs, respectively. The police explained, "B tried to distribute it to Gangnam or Busan after hearing rumors that Rummy and Pregavalin, who were thinking about how to make large amounts of money in a short period of time, were popular in entertainment areas."
The police seized 1,000 powdered milk tea sticks and 12 bottles of pregabalin stored in B's car.
"Recently, hemp products in the form of favorite products such as jelly and chocolate have been manufactured and distributed mainly in countries that legalize hemp, such as Thailand, Canada, and the United States," said Nam Sung-shin, head of the first division of the drug crime investigation. "Special attention is required as drugs disguised as commercial products are being smuggled."
