【Criminal Facts】

On January 29, 2018, the Defendants agreed to lend money from the victim C to use for Defendant A’s personal debt repayment, etc., Defendant B said that “A shall pay monthly pay to his employees and shall lend KRW 20 million to his employees.” Defendant A said to the effect that “A shall lend money to his employees until March 2018, and shall provide trees to be used for the restoration project of the nuclear power plant.”

However, even if the Defendants borrowed money from the victims, they did not have the intent or ability to provide the victims with trees as collateral or to repay the borrowed money.
