Michelin-star restaurant boss guilty of spiking woman's drink in Mayfair club
"Vikas Nath, 63, laced the woman's spicy margarita with gamma-butyrolactone (GBL) after she left him with the drink in the rooftop garden bar at Annabel's. Southwark Crown Court heard Nath had grown frustrated with the woman's apparent reluctance to have sex with him prior to the spiking incident, and took GBL in a vanilla extract bottle with him to the club. Nath had two bottles of the liquid drug at his Knightsbridge home, as well as a motion sensor-activated covert camera pointed at his bed."
"However, eagle-eyed Annabel's staff spotted Nath using a straw to put GBL into the margarita, and intervened to prevent the woman from drinking it. Vikas Nath uses a straw to put GBL in the woman's drink (CPS) On Friday, Nath was found guilty by a jury of attempting to administer a substance with intent and possession of a Class B drug."
