Prosecutors demanded five years in prison for Yang (28, female) and two years in prison for Yong (40, male), who was indicted together, in a final trial on charges of attempted blackmail held at the Seoul Central District Court's Criminal Chamber 20 on the 27th.
The prosecution says, `Yang plays the victim's costume, saying he received alimony, but it cannot be 100% consistent with the actual truth"It is a thoroughly planned crime, and the case is serious, the crime is poor, and the victim's mental suffering is likely to be significant."
Regarding Yong, he asked that the nature of the crime be extremely poor, such as threatening 15 times to extort Geumwon" but that "Please cooperate with the investigation process and take into account the fact that it was only attempted".
Yang and Yong are accused of extorting 300 million won by threatening Son Heung-min in June last year to reveal that he was pregnant with a child, and threatening to expose his pregnancy and abortion to the media and Son Heung-min's family from March to May, demanding an additional 70 million won.
Yang was found to have attempted to extort money from Son Heung-min by conspiring with Yong, his lover, as he suffered from the hardship of living by spending 300 million won on luxury goods consumption.
The prosecution handed over the group to trial in June under arrest. Son Heung-min appeared as a witness at the trial on the 19th after the A-match in November.
Yang's lawyer said "It's not a planned crime, it's not a threat to take unfair advantage" It's alimony for pregnancy and abortion. There was no intention of blackmail."
Yang said in the final entry, "(When I announced my pregnancy social media), my brother (Son Heung-min) asked me to come alone, so I went, but a memorandum was prepared."I sent it because they told me to send a certified photo of the surgery, and I got rid of it because they told me to get rid of my cell phone." "I tried to prevent damage to Son Heung-min."," he said, asking for leniency.
The prosecution added that Yong's crime is poor, including threatening 15 times, but he should cooperate with the investigation process and take into account the fact that he only attempted to do so.
The court decided to hold a sentencing date on Dec. 8.
