6.8 Billion Mystery of Warehouse Storage...The extent of the damage? Where's the source?

Employees of 'Cash Stolen' Warehouse Management Company, Detention Sent
Victims "Stolen 6.8 Billion"…Mr. A, "Only 4 billion were stolen."
Tracking the other 2.8 billion...an investigation into the existence of accomplices

[Anchor]
An employee of a warehouse management company in his 40s who was arrested for stealing billions of cash from a warehouse in downtown Seoul was handed over to prosecutors today.

But the sources of the 6.8 billion in cash the victim claimed to have kept and the whereabouts of the other four billion won seized are still questionable.

Reporter facial expression reports on the investigation issue.

A man wearing a hat and mask gets into the convoy with his head down.

Mr. A is suspected of stealing at least 4 billion won in cash from a rental warehouse near Jamsil Station in Seoul.

As he was sent to the prosecution, A did not give a clear answer to the reporters' questions.

[Mr. A / Suspect of theft: (What did you plan to use the stolen money for?) I'm sorry. (Family members have been mobilized. Is there another accomplice?) I'm sorry. (Are you sure you only stole 4 billion won?) I'm sorry.]

The police are continuing their investigation into the unanswered questions.

The first question is the actual amount of damages.

The victim claims that 6.8 billion won was stolen, but A says that only 4 billion won was stolen.

We need to find the whereabouts of nearly 3 billion won, but we are looking into whether Mr. A hid the rest of the money somewhere else.

Whether there were any other accomplices in the process is also a major investigation issue.

It is also necessary to check whether the victim's acquaintance, who first discovered the damage, is suspected.

Another question is the source of the damages.

The victim stated that 6.8 billion was divided into six suitcases and stored in a warehouse, and attention is focused on the background of storing large amounts of money in the warehouse.

Moreover, the message that Mr. A left in his bag stealing money adds to the question.

'Pretend not to know even if I know. Because the message 'then I won't say anything' can be read as if you know the source of the money.

[Yang Ji-min / Lawyer (YTN New Square 2PM): He knows about the owner of the bundle of money and it can only be read to the effect of "If you reveal your identity about me, I have something to reveal.".]

As the direction of the case itself may vary depending on the nature of the cash seized by the police, the investigation to determine the source of the money is expected to continue.
