B.I charged for administering drugs and handed over to trial
Both Yang Hyun Suk and former iKON member B.I (Kim Han Bin) have been indicted without detention.
Following reports that Yang Hyun Suk has been charged for threatening a witness A (Han Mo), A also testified to police about B.I's purchase and use of drugs during investigations. A stated that he was threatened to reverse his statements by Yang Hyun Suk and claimed investigations into B.I had not been properly conducted.
Yang Hyun Suk strongly denied the allegations but the prosecution found that the charges were acceptable after subpoenas to Han Mo and Yang Hyun Suk for further investigations.
As a result, prosecutors indicted Yang Hyun Suk for threatening a witness and handed over B.I to trial on charges of violating the Narcotics Control Act. B.I is charged with using some of the drugs after purchasing LSD through Han Mo from April to May 2016.
Yang Hyun Suk's first trial will be held on June 25th.
B.I's trial will be held on July 9th.
Yang Hyun Suk charged with threatening a witness to bury investigations into B.I's drug case
Yang Hyun Suk has been indicted for suspicion of covering up B.I's drug investigations.
On the 28th of last month, the prosecution handed over Yang Hyun Suk to trial and applied charges of retaliation under the Act of Aggravated Punishment of Specific Crimes.
Yang Hyun is accused of threatening A, who was investigated by police for providing drugs to B.I in August 2016 saying, "There are zero facts that B.I purchased drugs or used them."
B.I was brought to trial on charges of smoking marijuana and purchasing LSD after withdrawal from iKON in June 2019. B.I resumed activities on the 1st with a solo album.
