[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jung-wan] A male student who was charged with causing the death of a female student by attempting to sexually assault her and causing her to fall from a building on the Inha University campus has been expelled.


On the 13th, Inha University reportedly held a recent Student Disciplinary Committee meeting and decided to expel first-year student A (20), who was arrested and indicted on charges of murder including rape under the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes.


According to Article 50 of the school regulations on disciplinary actions, Inha University can impose four types of disciplinary measures on enrolled students: probation, suspension without leave, indefinite suspension, and expulsion.


Among these disciplinary actions, expulsion is the highest level, and students who are expelled cannot be readmitted.


A is accused of causing the death of a female student B in her 20s, who attends the same school, by attempting to sexually assault her on the stairs between the 2nd and 3rd floors of a college building on the Inha University campus in Michuhol-gu, Incheon, in the early morning hours of July 15, causing her to fall.


Immediately after the crime, he discarded B’s clothes in another location and fled to his rented room but was arrested by the police that afternoon.



After falling, B was left bleeding alone on the roadside in front of the building for about an hour and 30 minutes until 3:49 a.m., when a passerby reported it, and she was transported to the hospital by the 119 emergency medical team but died three hours later.
