Queensland Police is launching a detective-led investigation protocol for every drink spiking incident reported in Brisbane's Fortitude Valley entertainment precinct. Hundreds of drink spiking incidents are recorded across Australia annually, but criminal proceedings remain rare as victims are often reluctant to report them. The new crackdown aims to demonstrate police commitment to victims and identify perpetrators targeting people in clubs, pubs and other venues, with experts warning that drinks including water and soft drinks can be spiked, not just alcohol.
