According to DLNews, South Korean prosecutors have charged a 39-year-old man with attempting to murder his business partner by poisoning their iced latte with methomyl, a highly toxic pesticide illegally purchased from China, after a failed cryptocurrency investment. The two had been collaborating on Bitcoin investments since 2022, but their relationship soured after the defendant misappropriated $810,000 of company funds and lost it in a failed investment. In October 2025, the defendant reportedly purchased the banned substance for around $200 and smuggled it into the country; in November, he poisoned the drink at a café in Seoul's Songpa District. The defendant will stand trial for attempted murder and violating pesticide management laws, with the Seoul Eastern District Court set to hear the case on March 10, 2026. https://www.(wublock123.com)/index.php?m=content&c=index&a=show&catid=6&id=57162
