Aunt (left) and his aunt, who abused their 10-year-old nephew to death, are being sent to the prosecution at the Yongin East Police Station in Gyeonggi-do on the afternoon of the 17th. [사진출처=연합뉴스]The police investigating the murder of a 10-year-old nephew abused in Yongin applied the crime of murder to the perpetrators, aunts and aunts. At the time of application for an arrest warrant on the 9th, the police applied the child abuse fatality crime to the aunts and aunts only on the charges revealed under the Special Act on the punishment of child abuse crimes, not murder. On the 17th, the Gyeonggi Southern Police Agency and the Yongin Eastern Police Department sent the murders and physical abuse charges under the Child Welfare Act to the deceased Yang A (10) aunt B and his aunt C to the prosecution.
Mr. B left the detention center of the Yongin East Department and asked the reporter, “Do you admit the charges?” He said, “There are a lot of things I want to say…. That may not be true, and reporters and detectives seem to have decided and asked questions.” Said the answer.
The application of the murder crime made it possible to disclose the identity of Mr. B’s couple, but the police decided not to disclose it, saying that they were concerned about secondary damage to the birth parents and the remaining children of the perpetrator.
The police said about the reason for changing the crime of child abuse and lethality to murder under the Special Act on the Punishment of Child Abuse Crimes, “The first opinion of the autopsy doctor also means that the assault and cruelty are not irrelevant, so the crime of murder was finally applied.” As a result of the police investigation, it was confirmed that Miss A was sent to her aunt’s house in early November of last year, and was beaten 20 times and tortured twice since December. In addition to the 9th day of the death of Ms. A, it was revealed that there was one more abuse of water torture on January 24th this year. The police report that the mother was aware of the fact that her older sister (aunt) was informed of the corporal punishment through KakaoTalk.
On this day, the Jeollabuk-do Police Agency also decided to apply the crime of murder to the parents who killed a two-week-old infant by hitting him.
