It has been confirmed that a 20-year-old man found dead in an officetel in Seoul weighing 34 kg from malnutrition stated that he had been assaulted five times eight months ago while suing two friends.
According to SBS coverage, 20-year-old man A, who was found in an officetel in Yeonnam-dong, Seoul at the dawn of the 13th, visited the Daegu Dalseong Police Station on November 8th last year and filed a complaint for injury.
It was about being harassed by two friends who were arrested yesterday (15th) on charges of killing A.
In the victim investigation conducted two weeks later, Mr. A specifically stated the fact of the damage.
It was about being assaulted and injured five times by two friends in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul.
There was no mention of being detained.
The Daegu Dalseong Police Station handed over the case to the Yeongdeungpo Police Station in Seoul on November 23, the day after the investigation.
The case was transferred to the police station in the jurisdiction where the incident occurred and the address of the suspect.
However, the Seoul Yeongdeungpo Police Station decided that there was no problem and decided to dismiss the case on the 27th of last month.
In the meantime, the two friends were found to have engaged in various harsh acts, such as making Mr. A work, stealing profits, and beating and starving him.
Regarding this, an official from the Yeongdeungpo Police Station said in a phone call with SBS today, "It is difficult to give a specific explanation."
However, after the SBS interview request for clarification, he said, "We believe that the above complaint is highly related to the motive of the murder, and we are also checking the already closed case processing process.
