The National Police investigates the complaint of a young woman against the owner of a nightlife venue in the city for allegedly putting drugs in her drink
The medical reports made to a young woman who denounced being victim of a chemical submission in Cordova detected morphine in his blood, as confirmed to this newspaper by sources close to the investigation. The National Police investigate from two weeks ago the events that occurred in a nightlife venue in the capital and what has the owner of the establishment as accused for allegedly pouring drugs into the alleged victim’s glass.
The investigation, with the review of surveillance cameras, among other possible investigations, tries to clarify what happened during a night two weeks ago in Córdoba, when a girl with two friendswas having drinks in a well-known and frequented place in the city.
“Some powders” in the glasses
In an audio that circulates on social networks and which Diario Córdoba, from the Prensa Ibérica group, echoed, alerts about what happened. The woman who establishes the story – she identifies herself as the sister of a friend of the victim – recounts that, that night, the three young women were partying when they struck up a conversation with the owner of the establishment.
After a while, he continues, two of them went to the bathroom and, when they returned, they found the semi passed out friend and this man, whom they accuse, introducing “some powders” in their glasses.
The National Police neither confirmed nor denied this information, but they did assure this Wednesday that there was a complaint that corresponds with the narrated facts. In the audio it is also reported that the young woman was treated at the Reina Sofía hospital, where she was detected with morphine.
There are no previous complaints
Against the defendant, who runs the nightlife establishment in question, there are no previous complaintsas this newspaper has been able to confirm, despite the fact that, in the same audio, he is accused of having been denounced on more than one occasion.
The investigation is still ongoing and no further details have been released in this regard. One of the issues to be resolved is the how the morphine got into the girl’s blood, if someone supplied it -which would lead to a crime of chemical submission- and if the person who supplied it is the same person they are accused of. Facts that are not yet proven. What is certain is that said substance reached the young woman’s body.
A POWERFUL OPIATE
The existence of morphine in the bloodstream of the alleged victim of the reported chemical submission is an indication that said crime may exist. This drug is an opiate frequently used to relieve pain. Its potency and effectiveness are well known. Against this narcotic plays that it is, in turn, highly addictive in prolonged use, as has been verified from scientific research. However, as sources consulted explain, morphine, as a drug, is not easy to obtain. And much less is its personal use usual. In its medical applications, it is usually injected as a liquid solution, although as such it is a water-soluble powder.
