[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Min-young] The special investigation team for the late Sergeant Lee Ye-ram, a victim of sexual harassment in the Air Force, will announce the investigation results on the 13th.

The special investigation team stated that on the afternoon of the same day, Special Prosecutor Ahn Mi-young and deputy prosecutors will attend and announce the investigation results at the Seoul Bar Association building in Seocho-dong, Seoul.

The special investigation team is expected to explain whether to indict Jeon Ik-su, the head of the Air Force Headquarters Legal Office, who was investigated three times on charges including abuse of authority and neglect of duty as the person responsible for the inadequate initial investigation.

Jeon was suspected of directing a poor investigation by ignoring orders to detain the perpetrator at the time of the incident, and last October, the Ministry of National Defense prosecution decided not to indict him due to insufficient evidence.

The special investigation team for the late Sergeant Lee Ye-ram was launched in June to uncover the inadequate initial investigation and the Air Force leadership's alleged cover-up of the incident.

On the 31st of last month, lawyer A, accused of forging audio files handed over to the Military Human Rights Center, was arrested and indicted, while arrest warrants against a military official for leaking investigation information and an Air Force public relations officer for defamation of the deceased were dismissed.
