It is found that the amount of illegal military pension benefits has exceeded 3.2 billion won over the past five years, and there are criticisms that the system reform is urgent.
According to data submitted yesterday (19th) by Congressman Chae-ik Lee from the Ministry of National Defense, the amount of illegal national pension benefits amounted to about 3.25 billion won over the past five years from 2016 to September 2020.
However, the amount subject to redemption was 2.4 billion won, which was 76.6% of the total amount of illegal receipts.
Even that, out of the 2.4 billion won, it is known that only 1.54 billion won was redeemed.
Regarding this, Congressman Lee said, "Because the period for redemption is only up to five years," he said.
As a supporting case, the case of Mr. A, who deliberately delayed the report of her husband's death for 25 years and 10 months, and won a total of 350 million won was introduced.
Mr. A fraudulently bought money, but the redemption period was 5 years, so the redemption amount was 110 million won, only 31.6% of the total negative collection amount.
Mr. B, who concealed the fact of remarrying for 30 years and 10 months, also received a survivor pension of 230 million won, but the amount subject to redemption was only 74 million won, 31.8%.
Rep. Lee emphasized, "There are cases where people do not report death or remarriage, etc., or report delays, aiming at the loopholes of the system." I did.
