Police have arrested a couple in their 40s who embezzled hundreds of millions of won by imprisoning a co-worker in the past, making them take care of their children during the day, and prostitution at night.
Today (16th), the Daegu Jungbu Police Station announced that it was arresting Mr. A (41) on charges of arranging prostitution, confinement, and assault, and prosecuting and investigating Mr. A's husband, Mr. B (41).
The couple's crimes were revealed during the police investigation into the prostitution case.
Victim C, who previously worked at the same job as A, went into his residence after hearing the words of 'I will help' while struggling with money management.
However, instead of helping Mr. C, Mr. A thoroughly used him with his husband Mr. B.

From October 2019 to September of last year, these couples used a smartphone app to prostitute Mr. C more than 2,000 times, and stole 500 million won in profits from this.
In addition, they imprisoned Mr. C and used him as a slave, making him take care of their children during the day, and intimidating and assaulting him.
In this process, Mr. C was even forced to marry Mr. D (38).
Mr. D was the couple's junior at work, and in fact, had the role of monitoring Mr. C.
Accordingly, the police also booked Mr. D, the husband of victim C and the couple's junior at work.
A police official said, "We see it as a typical gaslighting crime." "We plan to confiscate and preserve the proceeds of the crime, and we are continuing the investigation into sex traffickers through a dedicated investigation team led by the chief of the central department."
