'음란행위' 경찰간부 '피해 줄 의도 없었다'
대낮 주택가 야외주차장에서 20대 여성을 상대로 음란행위를 한 혐의로 형사 입건된 경찰 간부가 징계위원회에 회부된 끝에 해임 됐다.인천지방경찰청 감찰계는 공연음란 혐의로 불구속 입건된 A(43) 경위를 해임했다고 31일 밝혔다.인천경찰청은 최근 열린 징계위원회에서 A 경위가 경찰 공무원 신분으로서 품위 유지 의무를 위반한 것으로 보고 해임을 결정했다.A 경위는 당일 징계위에 참석해 기존 경찰 조사에서 한 진술을 반복하며 선처를 호소한 것으로 알려졌다.그는 경찰 조사 당시 "아무도 없는 주차장에 숨어 자위행위를 했다"며 음란행위를 한 사실은 인정하면서도 "다른 사람에게 피해를 줄 의도는 없었다"고 진술했다.그러나 피해 여성은 "인기척이 나 뒤돌아보니 한 남성이 바지를 벗고 음란행위를 했고 이후 달아났다"며 상반된 진술을 했다. 해임은 파면 보다는 한 단계 수위가 낮지만 중징계에 해당한다. 해임된 공무원은 3년간 공직에 재임용될 수 없다. 공무원 연금은 25%가 삭감되지만 퇴직급여는 온

옥시가 가습기 살균제 사태 피해자에 대한 최종 배상안을 발표하고 8월부터 배상신청을 받기로 했다.옥시(옥시레킷벤키저·현 RB코리아)는 한국 정부의 1·2차 조사에서 1·2등급(가습기 살균제에 따른 피해 가능성 거의 확실 또는 가능성 높음) 판정을 받은 자사 제품 사용자에 대한 배상안을 31일 발표했다.앞서 옥시는 세 차례에 걸쳐 피해자 설명회를 열고 피해자의 과거 치료비와 향후 치료비, 일실수입(다치거나 사망하지 않았을 경우 일을 해 벌었을 것으로 추정되는 수입) 등을 배상하고 정신적 고통에 따른 위자료를 최고 3억5천만원(사망시) 지급하기로 했다.영유아·어린이의 사망·중상 사례의 경우 일실수입을 계산하기 쉽지 않은 점 등을 고려해 배상금을 총액 기준 10억원으로 일괄 책정(위자료 5억5천만원 포함)하기로 했다.경상이거나 증세가 호전된 어린이는 성인처럼 치료비·일실수입·위자료 등을 따로 산정한다.옥시가 이날 발표한 최종 배상안은 기존 안과 내용이 대부분 같지만 가족 가운데 복수의 피
