Jaycee Chan, son of Chinese kung fu star Jackie Chan, was prosecuted in Beijing on Monday for allegedly providing a venue for drug users, according to the People's Procuratorate of Beijing's Dongcheng District.

The prosecution came three months after he was formally arrested following a drugs bust at his residence in the capital.

On Aug. 14, Beijing police detained multiple people for drug offences, including Jaycee Chan and Taiwan movie star Ko Chen-tung.

Chan and Ko Chen-tung tested positive for marijuana and both admitted to taking the drug. Police seized more than 100 grams of marijuana at the junior Chan's home.

Ko Chen-tung was released on Aug. 29 after 14 days of administrative detention.

In Beijing, a number of celebrities have been detained by police on drugs charges.
