Southwark Crown Court found a man guilty of attempting to tamper with a woman’s drink and possessing a class B drug. The investigated incident happened on 15 January 2024; the verdict was delivered in February 2026.

Why this matters

Prosecutors said staff spotted the conduct, warned the woman and removed the drink before calling police. Witness accounts, CCTV and forensic evidence identifying GBL supported the prosecution. The Metropolitan Police also highlighted the importance of the venue’s prompt intervention and cooperation with investigators.

Context matters
