Referred to Prosecution Without Detention on Charges of Special Injury
Rapper San E, who is accused of assaulting a pedestrian with a mobile phone, has been referred to the prosecution.
On the 22nd, the Mapo Police Station in Seoul announced that San E was sent to the prosecution without detention on the 10th on charges of special injury.
According to the police, San E is accused of assaulting pedestrian A using a mobile phone and other objects around 8:30 p.m. on July 28 last year at the entrance of a park in Mapo-gu, telling A to "ride your bicycle properly."
San E was initially booked on charges of special assault, but the charges were changed to special injury after A’s injuries were confirmed.
At the time, A reportedly claimed that "the area near the eye was torn and some teeth were damaged." A was booked on charges of mutual assault, and San E’s father, who was at the scene, was also booked on charges of assaulting A. Both A and San E’s father did not want prosecution during the settlement process, so the investigation was closed.
Earlier, San E’s side issued an apology through a lawyer, stating, "I bow my head and sincerely apologize to the victim of my assault incident."
