Boyfriend's Planned Event Turns Out to Be a Contract Killing Scheme Aimed at Insurance Money
Mr. A Takes Out Insurance with Himself as the Beneficiary
Shows Cunning Deception Until Insurance Becomes Effective
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Kim Chunsu] Three teenagers who tried to kill a girlfriend by luring her to a secluded place under the pretense of a special event were caught by the police. It was revealed that they had premeditated the murder of the girlfriend for insurance money.
On the 11th, the Hwasun Police Station in Jeonnam announced that they had arrested and were investigating A (19) and two friends on suspicion of attempted murder.
A and the others are accused of stabbing B (19) dozens of times in the neck near Baegasan in Buk-myeon, Hwasun-gun, Jeonnam, at around 11 p.m. on the 9th.
According to the police investigation, A, an insurance planner, approached B through a dating app in May, pretended to be in a relationship, and planned the murder.
A took out insurance in B’s name and designated himself as the beneficiary, maintaining a fake relationship until the insurance became effective.
During the relationship, A involved two friends and even made plans together for the crime.
On the day of the incident, A, who went to a pension with B, lured B to a specific spot by saying, “I prepared a special event somewhere. I hid a gift, so go find it alone.”
Hearing this, B left the pension alone, but the path to the destination was too dark, so B returned to the pension. Although B hesitated, saying the way was scary, A insisted, “It’s an event, so you must go alone,” and sent B out again.
B gathered courage and took one step at a time, reaching the spot A had mentioned.
At the secluded destination about 1 km from the pension, B was met not with a gift but with C (19), A’s friend, holding a weapon.
C took out a weapon prepared in advance and stabbed B dozens of times in the neck. When the handle of the weapon broke during the attack, C even tried to strangle B.
After struggling desperately, B managed to escape from C and fled to a populated area. People nearby who heard B’s screams immediately reported to the police. Upon arriving at the scene, the police found C in the trunk of A’s car and arrested both A and C.
D (19), who had conspired in advance to commit the murder, was also arrested by the police. D is suspected of helping C escape using his own vehicle after the crime.
B, who sustained serious injuries, was transferred to a hospital, underwent surgery that afternoon, and is currently recovering.
It was investigated that A committed this act to pay off the installment for a foreign car he was driving.
