Traces of a drug suspected to be cocaine were found at a residence of former United Kingdom Prime Minister Liz Truss.
The drug was discovered over the summer at Truss's former grace-and-favor home, a residence granted to leading officials during their time in office, the Guardian reported. A member of the cleaning staff claimed the substance was found after a party attended by Truss and her allies. It was apparently confirmed to be cocaine when a swab of the drug tested positive in a cocaine test. Truss fervently denies the report.
Cocaine is classified as a Class A drug in the U.K., along with heroin, crack cocaine, and other hard drugs, carrying the heaviest possible penalty for possession, according to the U.K.'s government website. Offenders could spend up to seven years in prison, pay an"unlimited" fine, or both. Production and supply of the drug carries a punishment of up to life in prison.The Guardian stressed that it has found no evidence that Truss used the substance or was aware of it.
Other sources told the outlet that suspected cocaine residue has been found in the aftermath of several parties held by members of former Prime Minister Boris Johnson's Cabinet.
