Military Human Rights Center "Air Force Colonel, female soldiers attempted rape"

Suspicions of sexual violence were raised again in the Air Force, where the late Sergeant Lee Ye-ram died after being sexually harassed.

The Military Human Rights Center held a press conference today and claimed that the former commander of the 17th Fighter Wing of the Air Force tried to molest and rape a female lieutenant.

The center reported that second lieutenant A was sexually harassed by Colonel B, his immediate superior, at a company dinner in August, and that he suffered sexual harassment and attempted sexual assault after the company dinner on the 24th.

Afterwards, Colonel B committed a second offense to the executives who attended the dinner at the time, including conducting a guided interrogation and recording as if A had seduced him under the influence of alcohol, the center said.

The center also said that Lieutenant A submitted a complaint to the Ministry of National Defense's investigation headquarters, saying that Lieutenant A had also been asked to bribe Colonel B.

The Military Human Rights Center said it will file a complaint with the National Investigation Headquarters against Colonel B on charges of forced harassment such as soldiers.
