Jamie Boland, 38, died of sepsis following complications from 'chronic' ketamine use
A coroner has warned that ketamine is being wrongly seen as a 'safe' drug and should be upgraded to Class A following the death of an Ancoats businessman.
Ms Mutch said Mr Boland had used cocaine - a class A drug - but had later switched to ketamine - a class B drug - on the basis that he perceived it to be less harmful. Concluding Mr Boland's inquest, she found that though he had a non-fatal level of ketamine in his system, he died from sepsis caused by acute pyelonephritis, a complication of long term use of ketamine.
