'Security Guard Power Abuse' Resident Representative Now Sued for Assaulting Resident

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Seung-jin] A former apartment building representative who was arrested for abusing security guards and assaulting management office staff has been accused again of assaulting residents after being released on bail.

On the 4th, according to the police, the Nowon Police Station in Seoul received complaints from two apartment residents claiming they were assaulted by Kim, a former building representative in Nowon-gu, and is currently investigating him.

Kim is accused of punching residents in the face near the apartment management office building around 4 p.m. on the 2nd.

Previously, Kim was arrested last December and brought to trial on charges including forcing security guards to move his and his children's personal belongings and making them pay congratulatory money for his child's wedding, acts of 'gapjil' (abuse of power), but was released after his bail request was approved in January.

The victims claim that Kim held a grudge and assaulted them because they had helped another apartment resident file a complaint against Kim for embezzlement of management fees.

A police official stated, "We have completed the investigation of the complainants and are analyzing CCTV footage that has been secured."
