The Guri Police Station in Gyeonggi Province announced on the 20th that last month on the 8th, they referred Mr. A, a man in his 30s, to the prosecution on charges of false accusation.


Mr. A is accused of submitting a false complaint, alleging that Nana had committed attempted murder and aggravated assault. Investigations revealed that in December of last year, while in detention, he filed a complaint claiming that he did not possess a weapon when he entered Nana’s house and, instead, was injured by Nana with a weapon.


Upon receiving the complaint, the police, following procedure, booked Nana as a suspect and conducted an investigation. However, the police determined at the time that Nana's actions constituted legitimate self-defense and decided not to forward the case for prosecution, concluding there was no charge.


Subsequently, Nana’s agency, Sublime, regarded Mr. A’s claims as intentional and malicious secondary victimization and a false allegation, and proceeded with legal action against him for false accusation.


A police official stated, "After reviewing investigative documents prepared at the time Mr. A was apprehended in the act, we determined there was evidence of a false accusation," adding, "It is difficult to discuss the specific details."


Previously, on November 15 of last year, Mr. A was arrested and indicted on charges of breaking into Nana’s residence in Acheon-dong, Guri-si, Gyeonggi Province, with a weapon, threatening and injuring Nana and her mother, and demanding money.



On the 19th, during the final trial for Mr. A, who was indicted on charges of robbery and injury, the prosecution requested a 10-year prison sentence.
