“Total mobilization of connections in Suncheon·Gwangyang area”
Sung-Yong Ki filed a lawsuit for damages of 500 million won
On the 23rd, the revealer, who raised suspicion that soccer player Ki Sung-yong committed sexual violence in elementary school, claimed on the 23rd that “Ki Sung-yong passed through his alumni and secured evidence of threats.”
In a press release on the day, the attorney Park Ji-hoon of the exposer said, “Ki Sung-yong mobilized all connections in the Suncheon and Gwangyang regions from immediately after the incident until recently, and made a phone call to the alumni one by one to condemn and threaten the case. “I confirmed the facts,” he said, “we also secured evidence for this.”
He added, “I would like to ask if this is why it took nearly a month to fill out a complaint if possible in 1-2 hours.”
On the 24th of last month, Mrs. A and Mrs. B revealed that they were sexually assaulted by their seniors C and D in January-June 2000 while they were in soccer at an elementary school in Jeollanam-do. At the time of the disclosure, the player’s name was not specifically mentioned, but due to the content, player C was named Ki Sung-yong.
Ki Sung-yong claimed innocence at a press conference on the 27th of last month, suggesting a legal response. Accordingly, A and B’s side refuted that there was solid evidence, and the truth battle continued for nearly a month.
Attorney Song Sang-yeop, the legal representative of Ki Sung-yong, said that he filed a criminal complaint and a lawsuit (civil) for claiming damages of 500 million won to A and B. A criminal complaint was filed with the Seocho Police Station, and a lawsuit for damages was filed with the Seoul Central District Court.
The following is the full text of Ki Sung-yong’s position on the side of the accused of school violence.
Call for an end to unscrupulous media play and intimidation and intimidation against witnesses
Yesterday, the legal representative of Sung-Yong Ki filed a civil and criminal lawsuit against the victims. As victims, we sincerely welcome you to finally be able to reveal all evidence in court and hide the truth.
On the other hand, we have mobilized all connections in Suncheon and Gwangyang regions from the moment the incident occurred to Ki Sung-yong and made a call to each of Ki Sung-yong’s alumni and threatened to condemn the incident. Has been confirmed, and evidence regarding this has also been secured. I would like to ask Ki Sung-yong if this is why it took nearly a month to fill out a complaint, which can be completed in 1 to 2 hours. Ki Sung-Yong’s side is requested to stop such illegal activities.
Also, we discovered a very strange phenomenon on the Internet on March 21st. Several media companies were mass-distributing articles to cover the entire portal site as’Ki Sung-Yong Praise Articles’, using the same article title, the same article content, and even the same picture. The screenshot of the article below is a very small part of it.
Sung-Yong Ki, please stop the unscrupulous media play like the one above, which he always uses as an imperial report to cover up when those with money and power are at an unfavorable situation. Please do not try to deceive the people with such filthy actions anymore.
Now that the lawsuit has finally begun, please cooperate with us to uncover the truth in court.
