Helsinki, Aug 23: Finland Prime Minister Sanna Marin took a drug test and tested negative on Monday (Aug 22), in order to clear suspicions following the publication of a party video footage that showed her partying with friends.
The house party video that circulated on social media, raised questions about whether illegal substances were involved, following which Marin's urine sample was tested for the presence of various drugs such as cocaine, amphetamines, cannabis, and opioids, Iida Vallin, a special adviser to the prime minister, said on Monday (Aug 22).
Marin's office said in a statement, "Drug test is taken from Prime Minister Sanna Marin on Aug 19, did not reveal the presence of drugs." Clearing the air around the leaked video footage, Marin previously said she was spending an evening with friends and the videos were filmed on private premises. "To clear up any suspicions, I have taken a drug test today," Marin had shared with the media on Aug 20.
She admitted to having drunk alcohol, however, denied taking drugs and said that she did not witness any drug use by any of the attendees as well. "Never in my life, not even in my youth, have I ever used any drugs," she said, adding that she was upset that videos of her dancing at private parties were published online as they were meant to be seen only by friends.
