....WHAT HAPPENED TO JEE ICK-JOO?
Jee Ick-joo was a South Korean businessman stationed in Angeles City, about 80km north of Manila.
Last October, he received an abrupt visit from members of the Philippine National Police (PNP) and Anti-Illegal Drugs Group (AIDG).
They had a fake arrest warrant and accused Mr Jee of being involved in drug activity, according to a Department of Justice investigation.
Mr Jee was forcibly dragged to a police vehicle and driven to the Philippine National Police headquarters at Camp Crame, in Quezon City — a former detention centre.
On the way, he reportedly offered to bribe officers despite having no involvement in criminal activities, to no avail.
It was later revealed that mere hours after his arrival at the camp, Mr Jee had been strangled to death.
He was then cremated and his ashes were flushed down a toilet bowl, Philippines National Police spokesman Colonel Dionard Carlos told CNN.
Two of the officers suspected of carrying out the crime were on a key anti-drug force officers.
The case raised fresh fears over police corruption in The Punisher’s crackdown on drugs, as to whether they’re exploiting their power for their own personal gain.
Mr Jee’s kidnappers then hit his wife with a ransom demand for his release. By this stage, Choi Kyung was under the impression her husband was still alive.
Mrs Jee told investigators she paid five million pesos (AU$133,145), but the kidnappers demanded a further 4.5 million (AU$119,799). .... | |
