[Asia Economy Reporter Yoon Seul-gi] A man in his 20s who was accused of assaulting his two-month-old son after his wife ran away following a marital dispute admitted all charges at his first trial.


At the first trial held on the 15th at the Incheon District Court Criminal Division 15 (Presiding Judge Lee Gyu-hoon), the defense attorney for Mr. A, who was indicted on charges including child abuse causing serious injury, stated, "We admit all the charges."


Mr. A is accused of severely injuring his two-month-old son, Mr. B, at their home in Jung-gu, Incheon, on December 1 of last year.


Investigations revealed that after a marital fight at the end of November, his wife, who had been assaulted by him, left the house, and while caring for Mr. B alone, he suffered extreme stress, which led to the crime.


While bathing Mr. B, Mr. A forcefully hit Mr. B's head against the bathtub. When Mr. B's seizures did not stop, he repeatedly struck his buttocks and head and violently shook Mr. B's body up and down for three minutes, causing his body to bend.



Mr. B is currently suffering from traumatic subdural hemorrhage (brain hemorrhage) and has reportedly been receiving hospital treatment until recently.
