[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Park Hee-eun] The owner of a Bentley vehicle, who suffered damages such as having their car kicked by a drunken college student, has reportedly submitted a settlement agreement to the police expressing a desire not to pursue punishment, stating that there was no substantial damage.


The Suwon Southern Police Station in Gyeonggi Province announced on the 25th that they received such a settlement agreement from the victim and vehicle driver, A (23).


It is also known that A informed the police that there were no signs of damage to his vehicle and that he did not suffer any substantial harm.


Earlier, college student B (25) kicked the passenger door of the Bentley driven by A around midnight on the 19th in an alley in Paldal-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi Province.


When A came outside to protest, B grabbed his collar and assaulted him, leading to charges of property damage and assault. At the time, B was reportedly heavily intoxicated.


The police stated that since assault is a "crime subject to victim's non-prosecution" ("banuisabulbeoljoe") and the victim does not wish to press charges, the case will be closed with a "lack of prosecution rights" decision.



However, since the charge of property damage does not fall under "banuisabulbeoljoe," B is expected to be charged with "attempted property damage."
