According to media reports on May 22, South Korean police revealed that they have applied for arrest warrants for actor Yoo Ah In and her boyfriend A, who is an accomplice in drug use. The arrest warrant stated that they were in “danger of destroying evidence” and that the accomplices had attempted to flee overseas but failed.
Today, the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office applied to the court for the arrest of Yoo Ah-in and her boyfriend A on the grounds that Yoo Ah-in denies most of the criminal suspects and may destroy evidence .
The police accused Liu Yaren of smoking or injecting five drugs including marijuana, propofol, cocaine, ketamine and zolpidem, but Liu Yaren denied most of the criminal charges. The police believed that he had the possibility of destroying evidence and escaping.
The prosecution also stated that the police believed that Yoo Ah-in was not a simple drug-taking crime, and because of the accomplice, the prosecution believed that it was necessary to arrest Yoo Ah-in. In addition, the arrest warrant states that they are in “the danger of destroying evidence”, especially in the case of accomplices who tried to flee overseas but failed .

According to the relevant laws and regulations of South Korea, drug addicts are punished more severely, and can be sentenced to 1.5 times the original sentence at most. After the prosecution requests the court to issue an arrest warrant, the court will decide whether to issue an arrest warrant after reviewing the necessity of arrest early next week .
