The Seoul Central District Court has finalized the dismissal of charges against a university club member and a doctor who were indicted for administering narcotics. On the 18th, the Supreme Court dismissed the prosecutor's appeal and finalized the dismissal of charges against A, who was a member of a university club, and B, a doctor in his 50s. A and B were indicted for violating the Narcotics Control Act by administering hallucinogenic substances to club members at a university in Seoul in June 2021. The Seoul Central District Court dismissed the charges in January of this year, citing that the search and seizure of evidence was illegal. The prosecution appealed, but the high court upheld the lower court's decision, and the Supreme Court dismissed the prosecutor's appeal, finalizing the dismissal of charges. The Supreme Court stated that the search and seizure by the police was illegal and that it was difficult to acknowledge the evidence collected through it. The court also stated that even if the evidence was collected illegally, if it was inevitable and the illegality is not serious, it can be used as evidence, but in this case, it was difficult to acknowledge it as evidence because the illegality was serious. The court also mentioned that there was no need to make a specific statement on the trial court's violation of the rules of evidence. The Supreme Court finalized the decision, saying that there was no reason to overturn the original decision. The Seoul Central District Court previously dismissed the charges against nine people, including A and B, who were indicted on charges of administering narcotics, citing that the evidence collected through illegal search and seizure was illegal. The nine people, including A, were those who were administered hallucinogenic substances along with A and B. The court stated that it was difficult to acknowledge the evidence collected through illegal search and seizure as evidence, and that the charges against all nine people, including A and B, were dismissed.
