Reason Why 40s Cohabiting Couple Fought Wielding a Weapon: "Changed the Front Door Code"

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Jucheol In] A couple in their 40s who fought each other, even wielding weapons after an argument, was sentenced to prison with a suspended sentence.

Judge Cha Dong-gyeong of the Changwon District Court Criminal Division 6 announced on the 16th that A (42, female), who was tried on charges of special injury and special assault, was sentenced to 1 year in prison with a 2-year suspension, and B (47, male) was sentenced to 4 months in prison with a 1-year suspension.

The two, who have been living together as a couple for about a year, had an argument around 10:40 p.m. on July 8 at their residence in Gimhae, Gyeongnam, because B changed the password of the front door.

As emotions escalated, A struck B's head with a kitchen tong and injured him by wielding a weapon. B also held kitchen scissors to intimidate A, but when A hit him, B punched A's face and assaulted her.

Judge Cha stated, "Considering that they have amicably agreed not to seek punishment, acknowledged their faults, and showed sincere remorse, the sentence is determined comprehensively."
