Prosecutors Indict Biological Mother of 3-Year-Old Girl in Gumi on Charges Including 'Abduction of a Minor'

[Asia Economy Reporter Baek Kyunghwan] The prosecution has decided to indict Seok, who was identified as the biological mother of the deceased 3-year-old girl in Gumi.

On the 5th, the Daegu District Prosecutors' Office Gimcheon Branch indicted Seok at the Daegu District Court Gimcheon Branch on charges of attempted abduction of a minor and attempted concealment of a corpse. The charge of abduction of a minor pertains to the girl born to Seok's daughter Kim, and the charge of attempted concealment of a corpse pertains to the deceased girl.

Earlier, Seok was revealed to be the biological mother of the 3-year-old girl found dead in a semi-undressed state at a villa in Sangmo Sagok-dong, Gumi, Gyeongbuk, on the 10th of last month. Kim, Seok’s daughter, was arrested on suspicion of neglecting her 3-year-old daughter, leading to her death, but genetic testing confirmed that Seok, who was believed to be the maternal grandmother, was actually the biological mother of the deceased girl. Subsequent genetic testing by the Supreme Prosecutors' Office also confirmed that Seok was the biological mother of the deceased girl.

Currently, the police suspect that Seok secretly swapped the child born to Kim with a child she had given birth to herself before the blood test at an obstetrics clinic in Gumi.

Meanwhile, Seok has consistently denied the genetic test results during police investigations, claiming that she has never given birth.
