(Jeju = Yonhap News) Bong Ji Cheol Reporter - The murder of a Chinese man at a hotel in Jeju City is suspected to have occurred during a cryptocurrency exchange transaction, and the police are investigating.

The Jeju West Police Station announced on the 25th that they are investigating four Chinese individuals, including two women in their 30s, one man in his 30s, and one man in his 60s, on suspicion of murder.

These individuals are accused of killing a 30-year-old Chinese man, Mr. A, in a suite at a luxury hotel in Jeju City on the afternoon of the 24th. Mr. A was discovered by the police at around 5:10 PM after a friend's report.

The friend reported to 112 that "a friend who went to buy cryptocurrency is not responding, which is unusual, and something might be wrong."

When the police arrived, Mr. A was found dead, having been stabbed multiple times with a weapon and bleeding profusely.

Five minutes after the report, at 5:15 PM, one of the suspects, a 30-year-old woman, surrendered herself at the Seongsan Police Station in Seogwipo, Jeju.

Subsequently, two Chinese accomplices, a man and a woman in their 30s, were arrested at Jeju International Airport while attempting to leave the country, and a 60-year-old Chinese man was urgently detained at the hotel casino.

The police have confirmed that these four suspects fled with 85 million won (approximately $70,000 USD) belonging to the victim, Mr. A, and are investigating the exact motive and circumstances of the crime.

The police believe that the 30-year-old Chinese woman who surrendered may be the mastermind and are considering all possibilities, including whether the crime occurred during a cryptocurrency exchange transaction, based on the suspects' statements.

All of the suspects entered Jeju on tourist visas and are not illegally residing in the country.

ORIGINAL (unknown, verbatim as retrieved)

(제주=연합뉴스) 변지철 기자 = 제주시내 호텔에서 발생한 중국인 피살사건은 가상화폐 환전 거래과정에서 발생했을 가능성이 있는 것으로 보고 경찰이 수사중이다.

제주서부경찰서는 살인 혐의로 30대 여성 2명과 30대 남성 1명, 60대 남성 1명 등 중국인 4명을 조사하고 있다고 25일 밝혔다.

이들은 지난 24일 오후 제주시의 한 특급호텔 객실에서 30대 중국인 남성 A씨를 살해한 혐의를 받는다. A씨는 24일 오후 5시 10분께 지인의 신고를 받고 출동한 경찰에 의해 발견됐다.

지인은 '가상화폐를 사러 갔던 지인이 연락되지 않아 이상하다. 잘못된 것 같다'고 112에 신고했다.

경찰 발견 당시 A씨는 흉기에 여러 차례 찔려 피를 흘린 채 사망한 상태였다.

신고 시각 5분 뒤인 오후 5시 15분께 피의자 중 한 명인 30대 여성 1명이 제주 서귀포시 성산파출소에서 자수했다.

이어 공범인 30대 중국인 남녀 2명이 출국하려다 제주국제공항에서 경찰에 붙잡혔고, 호텔 카지노에서 60대 중국인 남성 1명이 긴급체포됐다.

경찰은 이들 4명이 피해자 A씨의 돈 8천500만원을 가지고 달아난 사실을 확인하고 정확한 범행 동기와 경위를 조사하고 있다.

경찰은 자수한 30대 중국인 여성이 주범일 가능성이 있다고 보고 있으며, 피의자 진술을 토대로 가상화폐 환전 거래 과정에서 범행을 저질렀는지 등 모든 가능성을 열어두고 수사하고 있다.

이들은 모두 관광비자로 제주를 찾았으며 불법 체류 신분은 아닌 것으로 알려졌다.

한편 지난달에도 제주시내 호텔에서 8억4천만원 상당의 가상화폐를 빼앗아 달아난 중국인 일당이 구속되는 등 가상화폐 거래 관련 범죄가 이어지고 있다.
