[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Ju Cheol-in] On the 16th, Chief Judge Yang Sang-yoon of the Daegu District Court Criminal Division 6 sentenced A (40), who was indicted for habitual embezzlement of hospital medical fees (embezzlement in the course of duty), to 2 years in prison with a 2-year probation.


A, who worked as a consultation manager at a dental clinic in Dong-gu, Daegu from 2015 to 2018, was tried on charges of using approximately 450 million won over about 530 instances by embezzling some of the medical fees he was entrusted with.



Chief Judge Yang stated, "Although the embezzled amount is large, considering that the defendant admitted to the crime and showed remorse, reached an amicable agreement with the victim, and has no prior criminal record, the sentence was determined comprehensively."
