The court sentenced the court to imprisonment for a daily party who deliberately injured 47 times in 22 months and scammed hundreds of millions of dollars in car insurance fraud.



Those in their twenties were found to have been systematically committing crimes around the metropolitan area after sharing roles such as planning and ordering accidents, driving and riding, and recruiting passengers.



The court explained the reason for the sentence, saying, "The crime is very bad," and "It is a crime with great social harm and requires severe punishment."



Judge Lee Ha-rim, who was exclusively for criminal 4 of the Uijeongbu District Law, announced today (10th) that he sentenced defendant A, who was charged with violating the Special Act on the Prevention of Insurance Fraud, to four years in prison.



In addition, the court sentenced three accomplices, including Mr. B, to 1 year to 1 year in prison, respectively.



According to courts and others, in May 2018, Mr. A deliberately hit a car that violated the signal while driving a car with an acquaintance on a road in Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi-do.



They pretended to be victims and received 15 million won from two insurance companies.



As Mr. A made easy money, he planned an additional crime.



We mobilized acquaintances to divide roles such as driving and riding, and recruited passengers separately.



Vehicles that changed lanes or violated the signal were targeted.



Mr. A and others traveled to the metropolitan area and collected a total of 590 million won in insurance frauds 47 times in 22 months.



Mr. A picked up an accomplice to fit the car's capacity to get more insurance money.



After a deliberate accident, we ordered hospitalization even for those who did not need treatment.



In order to avoid the insurer's suspicion from frequent accidents, the driver and passengers were changed or the name of another person was stolen to claim insurance.



Participants delivered most of the money they received from the insurance company to Mr. A by cash or bank transfer.



Mr. A continued to commit crimes even after being investigated by the police for insurance fraud.



Several people chased and violated those who tried to stop the crime.



Two of the accomplices, including Mr. B, independently recruited companions to earn more money and made insurance fraud.



Eventually, they were arrested and handed over to the police on reports from insurance companies suspected of fraud.



The judge ruled that "insurance fraud is a serious crime that causes insolvent insurance finances and breaks trust in insurance, while transferring the burden to a large number of general insured persons, and requires severe punishment."



He added, "The defendants are very badly guilty in terms of the content, frequency, duration and amount of the crime, as well as the method they took to continue the crime," he added.
