“Fifty per cent of the time the bartenders are involved,”

SOME BARTENDERS are aiding sexual predators by slipping date rape drugs into drinks of nightclub patrons, say police.

The Royal Barbados Police Force are aware of the practice and yesterday Detective Constable Antonio Marshall made a point of giving advance warning to 13-year-olds – who cannot legally enter nightclubs – about risks of accepting drinks from people they did not know and in leaving drinks unsupervised.

The third formers from the islands secondary schools were attending a seminar organised by the National Council on Substance Abuse in collaboration with the Emerging Global Leaders of Barbados.The seminar, which formed part of the activities for Drug Awareness Month, took place at Solidarity House, the headquarters of the Barbados Workers Union at Harmony Hall, St Michael.Marshall told the SATURDAY SUN that although no statistics were available on the prevalence of drugs such as Ecstasy and Rohypnol ruffies the RBPF was concerned about the reports they were receiving.”Sometimes we get people coming to us stating they were drugged or we get calls from people who observe these activities in the clubs,” he said.By the time those reports were received, there was virtually no evidence to trace the drugging.The most common effects include a loss of inhibitions, amnesia, excitability and confusion.

In many cases young girls have been sexually molested after drinking a Rohypnol-laced drink.”Fifty per cent of the time the bartenders are involved,” Marshall said, adding that while few people came forward with official complaints the police were aware of their modus operandi.
