An intellectually disabled person accused of killing a building owner in his 80s under psychological control by his employer has been sentenced to 15 years in prison.

On the 26th of last month, the Supreme Court confirmed the original ruling, which sentenced Kim, in his 30s, to 15 years in prison on charges of murder.

Kim was put on trial in November last year on charges of stabbing the owner of a building in his 80s with a weapon several times on the roof of a building in Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul.

Kim, who has an intellectual disability, is the manager of a motel parking lot located in Yoo's building, and was ordered to commit the crime after being psychologically dominated by Cho, who rented the parking lot from Yoo.It is known that Mr.

was in conflict with Mr. Yoo over the redevelopment of Yeongdeungpo area and separated the two by lying out of spite.

Earlier, the first and second trials sentenced Kim to 15 years in prison in consideration of the fact that he committed a cruel crime on the grounds of antipathy against the victim, but committed it at Cho's instruction using intellectual disability.

Cho, who was charged with teaching Kim to kill, was sentenced to 27 years in prison in the second trial on the 8th.
