The letter, dated Oct 1, 2012, was "about the substances found in the body of Mr Vorayuth Yoovidhya as requested by the Thong Lor Police Station". The drug is classified as a Type 4 stimulant, and it is highly regulated in the kingdom, the letter said. It said Benzoylecgonine is the main metabolite found in cocaine, which can still be detected in blood for as long as 28 hours after ingestion.
