Drink Testing Kit For Rape Drug

A new product is being launched for people to test their drinks to see if they have been spiked with drugs. The matchbox-sized device is designed to detect the three drugs typically used in instances of drug rape. The £3.95 Drink Detective contains three test pads to detect Rohypnol, GHB or ketamine, and a pipette for users to apply drops from their drinks. A leading helpline received almost 1,000 cases last year and overall about 15% of reported victims are male. The test is designed to detect the minimum amount of a drug needed to incapacitate the victim, according to makers Bloomsbury Innovations.
