Basketball player Heo Woong sues ex-lover's lawyer for innocent teacher

Basketball player Heo Woong, who was cleared of charges after being investigated by police for allegedly sexually assaulting his ex-lover, has filed a complaint against his ex-lover's lawyer on charges of being an innocent teacher.

Heo Woong's lawyer said today (30th) that he has filed a complaint with the Gangnam Police Station in Seoul against B, a lawyer who served as legal representative for his lover A, on charges of false accusation and defamation.

Heo Woong's side claimed that lawyer B pressed Heo Woong after suing him and allowed public opinion to flow in his favor.

Earlier in August, Heo Woong also filed a complaint against A on charges of innocence.

Last month, the police decided against Heo Woong's allegations of quasi-rape injuries.
