Lee Sung-jin Arrested on Allegations of Fraud

A police station in Heung duck, Cheongju stated that Lee Sung-jin, an entertainer and former member of the group NRG, has been arrested on allegations of fraud.

According to a policeman, Lee voluntarily appeared at the police station in Jeong Seon at 9:30 in the morning to undergo an investigation regarding the accusation of fraud.

After finding that he had been wanted by the Youngdeungpo Police Office under allegations of fraud, the police arrested him without a warrant.

Last month, on February 19, a man surnamed Lee (35), who works as a chauffeur, accused him of not paying a debt amounting to 20 million won and reported him to Jeong Seon Police Station.

He filed the complaint with a police station in Jeong Seon, where he lives, but Lee Sung-jin requested a change in precinct to Cheongju, where he currently stays, so the Heung Duck Police Office took over the case.

Before Lee Sung-jin was arrested, he reportedly alleged, "I borrowed money to lend it to my acquaintance. Mr. Lee sent 1.8 million won to my bank account after he took off 2 million won as an advance interest payment".

A police spokesperson said, "I know that Lee Sung-jin was put on the wanted list on a charge of burning money from a person. We are planning to extradite Lee Sung-jin to Youngdeungpo Police Office today".
