A woman is drugged and has presumably lewd photos taken. She may have willing taken the drugs, this is unclear and happens off screen. We just see her afterwards.

Not on screen but a character is seen having been drugged/high. She has been photographed presumably in a sexual manner and probably without consent.

Spoilers: I wouldn't describe it as suicide, but noting just in case, a man is forced by another man to drink poison.

The first murder victim is gay in the novel. Due to censors of the time, his sexuality is not apparent in the film.
