“I didn’t fall into the bathtub, but forced to soak it”… Aunt couple warrant

1st autopsy result of “body bruise, blood pressure drop and shock death”
Aunt couple confess, “I beat him two days ago…I’m not bothered to hear it”

[앵커]

A 10-year-old child who was entrusted to his aunt’s house in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do was found dead yesterday (8th). And today, the results of the 1st autopsy by the National Institute for Scientific Investigation came out. It says that there was violence and abuse. Moreover, it was investigated that the child was forcibly immersed in the bathtub water. So, it means that all reporting to 119, saying,’The child fell into the bathtub and died’ was false. The police today applied for an arrest warrant for my aunt and aunt’s wife.

Several bruises were found on Ms. A’s wrists and legs.

The National Institute of Scientific Investigation concluded that there were no signs of drowning in water as a result of the first autopsy.

At the same time, Ms. A revealed that it was a’secondary shock’ caused by an external shock.

Previously, Private Yoon Mo, who died in 2014 by a long-term group assault by senior soldiers, was diagnosed with the same.

The couple confessed yesterday that they had beaten Miss A with a stick or the like two days ago in a police investigation.

It was also a false report that he died in the bathtub.

The aunt couple said they were forcibly dipping Miss A into the bathtub during a police investigation.

The reason was that he did not listen and acted inconspicuously.

A trace of being tied to something was also found on both A’s wrists.

Police today filed an arrest warrant against the couple for child abuse.
