18 Most Wanted Gangsters in Busan Indicted

Tong's lawyers developed a defendant-centered criminal defense in a case in which the Busan District Public Prosecutor's Office indicted 18 gang members (13 detained and 5 not detained) for criminal organization and activities. We prepared a defense strategy for the defendants by conducting an intensive investigation led by the lead prosecutor of the Criminal Investigation Department, applying for pretrial detention and bail for serious charges such as possession of a revolver, contesting the organizational and criminal elements through evidence review, and arguing for the separation of simple membership and specific crimes. In addition, he advised clients on how to reduce the criminal liability of voluntary withdrawers and manage statements and evidence during the investigation stage, preserve and dispute illegal businesses and assets that are expanding into joint crackdowns with prosecutors, police, and the National Tax Service, establish defense logic based on changes to the indictment and specification of the facts of the indictment, and provide strategic negotiations and legal representation throughout the criminal process to protect the rights of the accused.
