‘Sexual Violence Controversy’ Ki Sung-yong, press conference “Disclose evidence”

“Let’s reveal the truth of the court”… The controversy handed over to Ki Sung-yong
Ki Sung-yong, who volunteered to hold a press conference last Saturday, asked the victims to disclose evidence of sexual violence.

The legal representatives of the victims, who were willing to give evidence as desired, reversed their position after two days.
After a press release was released late at night, Ki Sung-yong asked for a civil and criminal suit as soon as possible.
He added that the evidence would be presented to the investigative agency and the court for only Ki Sung-yong and lawyers to see it.
I heard why it is difficult to disclose in terms of protection of moral rights because there are many people besides the parties.
Stop public opinion and reveal the truth in court.
Since the statute of limitations has passed and the victims cannot hold financial responsibility, they have left the role of handing the case to court to Ki Sung-yong.
If you are suing victims for defamation and claiming damages at the same time, the facts are the first to be investigated.
Extensive investigation of past colleagues and leaders is inevitable.

It is also an important issue how much the evidence or statements obtained by the victims support the disclosure.
[허윤 / 변호사 : 피해자 측에서 피해를 입었다는 증거를 제출하지 못할 경우 명예훼손죄가 성립할 수 있고, 관련 내용을 폭로한 변호사가 진실성 여부에 대해서 정확하게 판단하지 않은 채 이 부분을 폭로했다면 변호사도 함께 책임질 수 있습니다.]
However, when the investigation begins, Ki Sung-yong and his family, as well as the FC Seoul club, are inevitably burdened.
However, if you do not respond to legal action, you will have to continue your career with controversy.
In the end, it is up to Ki Sung-yong’s decision whether to start a difficult court fight to reveal his innocence.
