Sangha is one of five people charged this week in connection with Perry's death Jasveen Sangha is one of five people arrested this week in connection with the death of Friends actor Matthew Perry , but who is the ‘Ketamine Queen’? On Thursday, US federal authorities held a press conference in which they confirmed that they had uncovered a “broad criminal network” of ketamine suppliers that “took advantage” of Perry’s addiction issues, with five people being arrested. The actor was found dead at his Los Angeles home on October 28, aged 54 . An autopsy report ruled his manner of death to be accidental, and showed that he died from the acute effects of ketamine, with contributing factors including drowning.
The police launched a criminal investigation into Perry’s death back in May, and stated they were working with federal authorities to pinpoint the source of the ketamine the 54-year-old actor had consumed.
