Local announcer arrested in his 40s who killed his teenage daughter by assault



Announcer A in his 40s was arrested on charges of assaulting his own daughter to death.

JTBC 'Case Team Leader', which aired on the 1st, reported that A is under arrest after being urgently arrested by police on charges of assaulting and killing her biological daughter, teenage B (abandoned death).

The incident occurred at 4:30 p.m. on the 22nd of last month in the emergency room of a hospital in Namhae-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do. Ms. B, who was carried by Mr. A's vehicle, was already without breathing and pulse. Mr. A "When I went to the car while working, my daughter was unconscious and I brought her to the hospital", but the medical staff saw the bruises and wounds left on the whole body and suspected the criminal connection and reported them to the police.




Regarding the situation at the time, a hospital official said "A seemed emotionally anxious and strongly protested to the medical staff, saying "Why did he die when he lived?"

The police identified the suspect as A based on the traces of external shock and the degree of physical damage. Mr. A is known as a singer and local broadcasting announcer who has been active in Jinju, Gyeongsangnam-do, which is shocking.

On the 21st, a day before the incident, A came to Namhae-gun with Miss B and was at the scene to help with the fire drill event. However, CCTV at the venue showed only A hanging around all night and B was not seen. Immediately after the incident, A was dismissed from his position as a public relations ambassador.




The police are investigating the exact circumstances of the incident against A.
