Police Secure Suspected Motive Memo from Desk of 'Bottled Water Incident' Suspect

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Jung-yoon] A note that could suggest the motive behind the crime has emerged in connection with an incident where two employees at a company in Seocho-gu, Seoul lost consciousness after drinking water from bottled water.

On the 28th, according to the police, the Seocho Police Station in Seoul secured several notes believed to have been written by the suspect, Mr. Kang.

The notes are understood to contain details that could help infer the process and motive of the crime. Employees discovered them while organizing Mr. Kang’s office desk.

The police have been conducting an investigation, having obtained internet records of poison purchases and found containers of poison with the same components as the poison detected in the victim employee’s blood at Mr. Kang’s residence. Additionally, they are focusing investigative efforts on uncovering the motive behind the crime.

With Mr. Kang found dead at his home, the case is expected to be closed as 'no prosecution,' but the police continue their investigation to clarify the crime process, motive, and to check for any accomplices.

Meanwhile, as the male employee who lost consciousness passed away, Mr. Kang has been charged with murder and attempted murder.
