In connection with the case of a single mother in her 30s who died in September after suffering from illegal collection, police arrested one of the loan sharks who collected illegal bonds against the victim.
It has been more than a month since YTN exclusively reported the damage.
The Jongam Police Station in Seoul arrested a man in his 30s who collected illegal bonds against the victim yesterday (15th) on charges of violating the loan business law.
In addition, nine people accused of lending mobile phones and bank accounts used in illegal lending businesses and debt collection were also identified and booked without detention.
In addition to Mr. A, the police said they are continuing to track down other loan sharks who illegally collected the victims.
According to the YTN report, the deceased victim borrowed hundreds of thousands of won from loan sharks and owed more than 10 million won in a month at an annual rate of 3,000 percent.
It has been confirmed that loan sharks sent hundreds of threatening texts a day containing swear words and insults to family and acquaintances when the victim failed to pay back the money on time.
