Police have discovered a white powder suspected to be drugs at Olympic Park in Seoul and have requested a detailed analysis from the National Forensic Service.
According to Yonhap News Agency, the Songpa Police Station in Seoul reported that a plastic bag containing an unidentified white powder was found recently in a pavilion within Olympic Park.
The pavilion is located approximately 300 meters from the handball stadium, where a protest against the Jamsil ballot counting is taking place.
Police responded to a report of the white powder, believed to be drugs, at 3:59 PM on July 17.
After conducting ten preliminary drug tests at the scene, all results were negative. However, police have requested a thorough examination from the National Forensic Service to confirm the substance's nature.
A police official stated, "We are currently waiting for a response from the forensic service," adding that the plastic bag's shape and size differ from typical bags used for drug distribution.
