Island Investigations on Club Drugs
2023.06.05(mon)  |  고주연
Island Investigations on Club Drugs Last month, a drug trafficking and distribution network involved in selling drugs such as Ecstasy and Ketamine in karaoke bars and foreigner-exclusive clubs in South (경상) Gyeongsang Province was apprehended by the Coast Guard. Amidst a series of drug crimes occurring in clubs and bars nationwide, a similar drug offender has been arrested in Jeju as well. A man in his 30s, identified as Mr. A, who was formerly affiliated with a club, has been arrested last month on suspicion of possessing dozens of Ecstasy pills and consuming them. Jeju District Prosecutor's Office has indicted Mr. A on charges of drug possession and consumption, and they have also announced that they are conducting supplementary investigations into individuals who were involved in drug consumption with him. Ecstasy, a new type of drug, is known as a "club drug" as it is primarily consumed by young people. It has a hallucinogenic effect that is three times stronger than that of methamphetamine. INTERVIEW Jo Gwang-won / Jeju Office, Korean Society of Drug Abuse Ecstasy is known to produce hallucinogenic effects that can induce a significant elevation in mood. It is indeed a drug that is commonly used by young people. The Jeju Provincial Police Agency has stated that this case is unrelated to clubs, and it is difficult to disclose specific details regarding the case, including the specific charges, as the investigation is still ongoing. According to the Korea Customs Service, the amount of newly identified drugs seized last year was 260 kg, which is more than a tenfold increase compared to two years ago. Among them, the quantity of Ecstasy seizures increased by seven times during the same period. With the recent arrest of an Ecstasy drug offender in Jeju, there is growing interest in whether the crimes are linked to related industries, as seen in nationwide cases, rather than being isolated incidents of individual crimes. The investigation results regarding any potential spread of crime to associated sectors have garnered significant attention. 제주에도 클럽 마약?…경찰 수사 확대 지난 달 경남에 있는 노래주점과 외국인 전용 클럽 등에서 엑스터시와 케타민 등 마약류를 판매한 판매책과 유통 조직이 해경에 검거됐습니다. 전국적으로 클럽이나 술집에서 마약 범죄가 잇따르는 가운데 제주에서도 유사 마약 사범이 검거됐습니다. 모 클럽 관계자였던 30대 A 씨가 지난 달 엑스터시 수십 정을 소지하고 투약한 혐의로 구속됐습니다. 제주지검은 A 씨를 마약류 소지와 투약 혐의로 구속 기소했고 함께 투약한 이들에 대해서도 보완 수사를 진행하고 있다고 밝혔습니다. 엑스터시는 필로폰보다 환각 작용이 3배나 큰 신종 마약류로 젊은 층이 주로 투약하면서 일명 클럽용 마약으로도 알려졌습니다. <인터뷰 : 고광언/ 한국마약범죄학회 제주지회장> 엑스터시를 투약하면 환각작용을 일으켜서 기분이 아주 상승되는 효과를 누리는 마약으로 알려지고 있습니다. 젊은 사람들이 많이 이용하는 마약으로 보면 되겠습니다. 제주경찰청은 이번 사건은 클럽과는 무관하다면서도 구체적인 혐의점 등은 수사가 진행 중이여서 밝히기 어렵다고 전했습니다. 지난해 관세청이 적발한 신종 마약류는 260kg으로 2년 전보다 10배 이상 급증했습니다. 이 가운데 엑스터시 적발 물량은 같은 기간 7배나 늘었습니다. 제주에서도 엑스터시 마약 사범이 검거된 가운데 개인의 단순 범죄가 아닌 전국 사례처럼 연관 업종으로 범죄가 퍼졌을지 수사 결과에 관심이 모아지고 있습니다.

  • KCTV: Crackdown on Traffic Light Violations
  • About 3,000 drivers were caught for traffic light violations in Jeju last year. That’s more than ten times the number of just a year before. Part of the reason is an increased focus on these types of problems by police, but authorities say many drivers just don’t give themselves enough time to get through an intersection before the light turns red. Joseph Kim has more. [slug] Yeondong Intersection, Jeju City This is (연동) Yeondong Intersection in Jeju City. The light turns yellow. But motorists are trying to sneak through the intersection by not allowing themselves enough time to get through it before the light turns red. Even worse, some drivers are hastily following cars in front at the red light. This is so-called sneaking-through. ======C.G======= More than 2,900 drivers were caught for sneaking-through or traffic light violations at intersections in Jeju last year. That number increased more than 10 times compared with a year before when 251 motorists were caught for the violation. =====C.G======== [camera] Park Byeong-joon The sneaking-through is definitely against the Road Traffic Act. However, many of drivers don’t recognize it. In addition to the fixed surveillance cameras installed at intersections, police set up camcorders to catch lawbreakers. =============C.G=========== Van drivers are fined 50,000 won for traffic light violations, passenger car drivers, 40,000 won and two-wheeler motorists, 30,000 won. ==========C.G============= INTERVIEW Gang Seong-ju / Jeju Police Agency We are cracking down on traffic light violations at intersections where traffic is often backed up. Drivers who can’t get out of an intersection by the time the light turns red are subject to fines. <인터뷰 : 강성주 /제주지방경찰청 안전계 경감> "교차로가 정체돼 있는데도 무리하게 진입을 해서 신호가 바뀌어도 교차로를 빠져나가지 못하는 경우에 단속 대상이 되고 있습니다.."
