Aunt A and his aunt B, who died from assault and water torture, were imprisoned while taking care of their sister’s 10-year-old daughter.
Suwon District Law Judge Lee Myung-cheol issued an arrest warrant for the two through an interrogation of the suspects before arrest by Mr.
Deputy Judge Lee said, “It is a crime that led to death in the process of abusing a young nephew he was protecting in an unusual way. The consequences are disastrous, and the matter is not only very serious in the light of the method of the crime, but also the statements of the suspects and until now. In light of the degree of investigation, it is difficult to rule out fears of destruction of evidence and fears of escape.
The charges applied to the two are the Special Case Act on the punishment of child abuse crimes, but the police decided to examine whether to apply the crime of murder through additional investigation.
Mr. A, who wore a black hat earlier and attended the warrant examination, briefly said, “I’m sorry,” when asked by the reporters, “Aren’t you sorry for the child?” Mr. B, wearing a black hat and white jumper, also said, “I’m sorry” to the reporter’s question.
On the morning of the 8th, Mr. A and his nephew C are accused of being abused and killed by slapping their heads in the bathtub and forcibly putting their heads in and out of the bathtub, beating them with plastic flappers and brooms.
Mr. A reportedly reported falsely saying, “The child fell into the bathtub and does not breathe,” calling 119 at around 12:35 on the same day when Ms. C did not breathe. The 119 paramedic, who had been reported and dispatched, performed CPR on Ms. C, who was in a state of cardiac arrest, and transferred him to the hospital, but died. Afterwards, the hospital medical staff found a bruise on Ms. C’s body and reported it to the police, revealing the fact of child abuse. In a police investigation, Mr. A and Mrs. A stated that “they have been lightly hitting the child a few times,” and belatedly confided about assault and abuse using water.
Of the three biological children of Mr. A, the youngest (2) was found to have been cared for by Mr. B’s parents since the age of 100 after birth, and it was confirmed that the two 12-year-old and 5-year-old children stayed at Mr. A’s sister’s house on the day of the death of Mr. .
