| The Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors’ Office announced on June 14 that it is investigating whether a professor and a college are involved in a draft dodging scandal. Prosecutors found out that Mr. Yoon, a doctorate degree holder from a private S university, was working at a college lab run by his scholastic councilor, not at the H company designated by the Military Manpower Administration (MMA).
The prosecution said that although he reported to the MMA that he would work for H company during the term of his military service from June 2004 to February this year, he has been working with his mentor to develop a molding machine at his professor’s college lab instead.
Prosecutors plan to arrest Mr. Kim (51), the president of H, on charges of illegally dispatching Yoon, and Yoon will be punished with administrative measures of the MMA.
The college lab in question said, “Yoon had to come and work here because specific machines to make a needed mold are only here in our university.”
