Prosecutors have asked for two and a half years in prison for a man in his 20s who was handed over to trial on charges of exchanging military salaries in half.

The Chuncheon District Prosecutors' Office asked the court to sentence 28-year-old Cho to two and a half years in prison in a final hearing on charges of fraud, violation of the Military Service Act, and violation of the Resident Registration Act.

The prosecution explained the reason for the claim that it is normal for the defendant to admit all the facts, but it is necessary to strictly deal with serious crimes that shake the foundation of the military service system.In his final statement, Mr.

appealed for leniency, saying that he is looking back on himself while having a painful time every day since his arrest, and that he intends to create an environment where he can live quietly with his father if he returns to society.

The lawyer also said that Cho committed the crime due to hardships of life and mental illness, and that he was imprisoned for four months after his arrest, acknowledging and reflecting on his wrongdoings, and clear social ties such as frequent visits by his parents.The first trial sentence for Mr.

will be held at Chuncheon District Court at 2 p.m. on the 13th of next month.

Earlier, Cho decided to share half of the soldiers' salaries in exchange for joining the army instead of Choi in his late 20s, and was put on trial in July last year on charges of joining a boot camp in Hwacheon, Gangwon-do instead.Mr.

continued his military career for nearly three months, pretending to be Mr. Choi, receiving physical examinations instead, and receiving training in the second half of the year following the deployment of the boot camp and the platoon, and receiving 1.64 million won in return, according to the investigation.

This fact was revealed when Choi, fearing detection, turned himself in to the Military Manpower Administration in September last year, and Choi was reportedly indicted without detention in a court having jurisdiction over the address.

This is the first time since the establishment of the Military Manpower Administration in 1970.
