It was late revealed that a player from a professional baseball club in the Seoul metropolitan area has been sued for allegedly sexually assaulting and injuring a woman.

According to NEWS1 on the 4th, Woman A filed a criminal complaint with police last year against Player B (in his 30s), who belonged to a KBO League club in the Seoul metropolitan area, on charges of attempted rape and injury.

The complaint reportedly states that Woman A went up to Player B's hotel room, was assaulted, and then had unwanted sexual relations.

Woman A claimed she suffered physical injuries from severe assault by Player B at the time and experienced significant psychological trauma following the incident.

However, the police who investigated the case determined it was difficult to recognize the allegations against Player B and decided not to prosecute.

It is understood that the police made this judgment after comprehensively reviewing messenger conversation records exchanged between the two before and after the incident, as well as hotel closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage showing Woman A tidying her appearance after leaving the room.

In response, Woman A appealed the police's decision not to prosecute and filed an objection in March. The case is now with the Prosecution Service and investigation is underway.

Player B's lawyer stated, "Regarding this complaint, Player B feels deeply unjustified. There was no fact of assaulting Woman A, and he does not accept any sexual assault allegations whatsoever."

A police official said, "It is true that the complaint was filed. This is a case where the allegations were not recognized, leading to a decision not to prosecute."
