Less than four months after returning from a drug rehab center,
Taiwan actress Hsiao Shushen was discovered with drugs again on
Wednesday, when Taipei police tailed a drug supplier to her house.
They found cocaine and syringes, according to a report on
Sohu.com.
When police broke into the house, Hsiao was sitting in the
living room. Her assistant Hsu Huihui was sleeping in another room.
There were also some other people, the report said.
The drug supplier tried to kill himself by swallowing powder
from a fire extinguisher and was sent to a nearby hospital
immediately.
Hsiao admitted on the site that she still used drugs, but her
assistant denied the claim. The group was later taken away by
police for drug tests, the results of which are not yet
available.
If Hsiao tests positive, she is likely to face a prison term of
six months to five years, the report said.
In December last year, Hsiao admitted publicly that she had been
involuntarily using drugs, saying she was given the drugs without
her awareness.
She was later sent to a local rehabilitation center and
subsequently released in July.
