When talking about #Seungri 's legal case, I often note that he was sentenced even though prosecution (!) witnesses were speaking in favour of his innocence. #JusticeForSeungri
But there are even more troubling aspects which call the fairness of the trial into question:
🧵⬇️
Yoo In Seok was named by witnesses as the actual responsible for the prostitution mediation charges (meaning hiring sex workers for others). Why was he allowed to repeatedly absent himself from questioning, despite being called as a witness? ⬇️
A Japanese businessman was specifically named as the recipient of prostitution services by the court. However, he had previously denied this in a public social media post and moreover was accompanied by his spouse on the day in question (confirmed by photographic evidence). ⬇️
Why was the defense not allowed to call this businessman as a witness?
🚩 This all strongly suggests that the court ignored evidence favourable to Seungri (the defendant) and perhaps even actively suppressed it.

Re: "he admitted" 🧵
#Seungri #JusticeForSeungri

We do not actually know for certain if Seungri admitted guilt (in the sense of personal responsibility) for any of the 8 contested charges during the appeal process, was forced into a plea deal, or... ⬇️
...simply decided to not contest some charges any more.

We have not heard from Seungri himself during the appeal process, which was conducted entirely behind closed doors: There were ZERO reports about the proceedings after both Seungri and the prosecution submitted... ⬇️
...appeals to the Higher Military Court and before the announcement of the outcome. In the case of the appeal to the Supreme Court, it was not even publicly announced that the appeal was happening at all before the final verdict was reported! ⬇️
