The Suwon District Prosecutors' Office announced on the 2nd that it had arrested Caracula on charges of blackmail and other charges. Song Baek-hyun, a senior judge at the Suwon District Court who conducted the suspect's interrogation before his arrest, issued an arrest warrant, saying, `There is a risk of destroying evidence and fleeing.'
Caracula was previously accused of aiding and abetting the racketeering crime of foot-and-mouth disease. He is also accused of conspiring with foot-and-mouth disease to extort 52 million won from Internet broadcaster BJ Suet.
On the other hand, the warrant for lawyer Choi, who was requested for a preliminary arrest warrant along with Caracula, was rejected. Chief Judge Song said, `There is room for dispute over the establishment of the crime, there is little concern about the destruction of evidence, and it is difficult to admit the reason or necessity to arrest at this stage in light of housing and family relations"I judged.
Choi, who served as a lawyer for his ex-boyfriend, is accused of blackmailing Tzuyang, assisting the YouTuber's foot-and-mouth disease, and forcing Tzuyang, the former CEO of Tzuyang's agency, and his ex-boyfriend A. In particular, he was pointed out as an informant who handed over Tzuyang's information to foot-and-mouth disease. On the 25th, Tzuyang filed a complaint against Choi with the Suwon District Prosecutors' Office on charges of racketeering and leaking business secrets.
Meanwhile, the foot-and-mouth disease and the YouTuber's chief inspector were arrested on the 26th after a preliminary arrest warrant was issued for threatening Tzuyang to extort money.
