After being caught in Corona 19 in May of this year, an instructor at Incheon Academy who was deceived by cheating on his job and his fellowship during an epidemiological investigation was arrested.

The Incheon Metropolitan Police Station announced today (20th) that the instructor A (24, male) was arrested and sent to the prosecution in charge of prosecution for violating the law on the prevention and management of infectious diseases.

Mr. A is accused of deceiving his job during the initial epidemiological investigation and deliberately uncovering some movement lines after receiving a confirmed corona19 decision in May of this year.

He concealed his identity as an instructor and lied "unemployed," and did not tell the authorities that he had taught at a moisturizing academy before being judged.

The police arrested a warrant issued by the court in advance when A, who had been discharged from the hospital on the 6th of this month, voluntarily attended the police station four days later.

Mr. A said to the police, "At that time, I had a positive Corona 19 positive and was shocked to lie, and I couldn't remember because I had no circumstance."

Mr. A, who was confirmed by Corona 19 on May 9 this year, was infected after visiting the King's Club of Itaewon and Pocha (pub) in Seoul on the 2-3rd of the same month.

The quarantine authorities, deemed that Mr. A's statement regarding the traffic lines were incorrect, asked the police to look up the mobile phone's location information (GPS), and failed to inspect Mr. A's contacts for three days before receiving the location information.

Subsequently, infections through the moisturizing school where Mr. A worked and his disciple went to the Incheon Coin Karaoke Room spread to the buffet restaurant at the first birthday party in Bucheon.

There were over 40 people in Incheon, including elementary, middle and high school students, and more than 80 people were infected nationwide.

The radio waves originated from Mr. A, and even the case of '7th infection' appeared.

He was cured from the negative pressure ward on the 5th of last month, only a month after he was confirmed, but he moved to the hospital for another disease and continued to be treated for a while.

A police official said, "The matter was serious and detained because Mr. A's lie caused many infected patients." In the future, if we refuse or interfere with an epidemiological investigation related to Corona 19, we will strictly investigate.
