The public's anger is growing as it was belatedly known that the late film director Kim Chang-min, who left after donating organs to four people, was beaten to death. While the case is increasingly drawing attention as a social issue, the police applied for a total of five warrants, but all were rejected, raising anger that the perpetrator was not arrested. The people are becoming more aggrieved by the loopholes of the 'law'.
According to the JoongAng Ilbo on the 10th, the police who investigated the death of the late director Kim Chang-min applied for arrest warrants five times. The prosecution requested arrest warrants twice, but the court reportedly dismissed them all on the grounds that there was no fear of destroying evidence and fleeing.
According to the report, the Guri Police Station in Gyeonggi-do applied for an arrest warrant for A among the four members of the party at the scene of the assault in October last year on charges of serious injury, and the prosecution accepted the request and asked the court for a warrant, but the court rejected the warrant, saying, "There is no fear of destroying evidence and running away."
Later, when the late director Kim Chang-min died in November of the same year, the police booked B among the four members of the party as an additional suspect in response to the prosecution's request for a supplementary investigation. As the case was changed due to the joint crime between A and B, the name of the crime was also changed to injury resulting in death. Since then, police have requested arrest warrants for the two four times from early February to the end of March. However, after going through the prosecution's request for a supplementary investigation and rejection process, the prosecution finally requested an arrest warrant to the court once. The Uijeongbu District Court's Namyangju Branch also rejected the second warrant, which consisted of A and B as accomplices, on the grounds that there was no fear of destroying evidence and running away.
More surprisingly, in the case of B, an arrest warrant was not issued despite the probation period due to the same criminal record. In response, investigative agencies also point out that such cases are unusual.
While the case is drawing public outrage, the Ministry of Justice has also stepped up. Justice Minister Jung Sung-ho stressed on the 7th that "we will thoroughly investigate the truth and reveal the actual truth so that the perpetrators will be subject to strict punishment." Minister Chung said, "The victim, who was a young and dreamy film director, was assaulted in a group while visiting a restaurant with his children with developmental disabilities and died of brain death," adding, "The bereaved families point out the lack of initial investigation, with only one person being sent as a suspect, even though at least six people appear on CCTV at the time of the assault, and only one more person was identified only after the bereaved family protested and the prosecution demanded a supplementary investigation." "The mental pain and anxiety of the bereaved families are also great in the tragic reality that the perpetrators are walking on the streets due to the rejection of arrest warrants." It is difficult to even count the heart of the deceased, who had to close his eyes while leaving children with severe developmental disabilities, and the heartbreak of the bereaved family, who must have been hurt by the investigation that did not meet expectations, in addition to the loss of their families, he said.
According to Minister Chung, the prosecution (the Namyangju branch of the Uijeongbu District Prosecutors' Office) quickly formed a dedicated team and launched a supplementary investigation after receiving the case from the Guri Police Station on the 2nd to thoroughly investigate the entire case and bring the perpetrators involved to justice. Minister Chung said, "The Ministry of Justice will ensure that there is not a single point of injustice left for the deceased victims and their families," adding, "We will thoroughly investigate the truth and reveal the actual truth by thoroughly supplementing the first investigation so that the perpetrators will be punished strictly." I pray for the repose of the late director Kim Chang-min, who left after sharing the warmth of life with organ donation until the end," he mourned the deceased.
Meanwhile, the late head coach Kim Chang-min passed away on November 7 last year due to cerebral hemorrhage. The sister of the deceased announced the obituary on social media and said, "After being diagnosed with brain death on the 7th, I shared my precious new life with four people through organ donation and left for the Lord." At that time, it was known as a simple cerebral hemorrhage death, but it was later known that it was a cerebral hemorrhage caused by assault, making it even more regrettable. The late director Kim Chang-min directed "Whose Daughter" and "Exit 3 of Guui Station." He also worked on writing teams such as 'Daechang Kim Chang-soo', 'Witch', 'Drug King', and 'Firefighter'.
