Man, 61, arrested after Japanese AV actress-turned-DJ allegedly drugged in Hong Kong

In Hong Kong, a 61-year-old man has been arrested in connection with a suspected drink-spiking incident involving Japanese former AV actress-turned-DJ Mao Hamasaki. The incident occurred after Hamasaki performed at a private Halloween event in Tsim Sha Tsui, where she allegedly consumed a drink containing a harmful substance. Hamasaki, who performed a DJ set, became unwell around 40 minutes to an hour after consuming an orange-flavored cocktail.

She experienced severe dryness in her eyes and began to stiffen, losing control of her limbs and memory of the events. Hospital tests revealed positive results for four categories of substances. Hamasaki has expressed gratitude for the support she has received and stated her intention to cooperate with the police investigation. The identity of the man arrested for the alleged crime has not been disclosed.
