여대생 청부살인 사건’의 범인 윤모씨(68)의 형집행정지와 관련해 주치의의 허위, 과장 진단서 작성 의혹을 수사 중인 검찰이 13일 주치의가 근무하는 병원을 압수수색했다.
윤씨는 2002년 자신의 사위와 이종사촌인 여대생 하모씨의 관계를 불륜으로 의심, 하씨를 청부 살해한 혐의로 기소돼 2004년 대법원에서 무기징역을 선고받았다.
이후 윤씨는 세브란스 병원의 주치의 박모 교수가 발급한 진단서에 명기된 유방암, 파킨슨 병 등을 이유로 2007년 형집행이 정지된 후 5차례 이를 연장했다.
이와 관련, 피해자 하씨의 가족은 윤씨가 거짓 환자 행세를 하며 세브란스 병원 등 호화병실에서 지냈다는 의혹을 제기했고 허위 과장 진단서 작성 혐의로 박 교수를 지난 4월 검찰에 고발했다.
검찰은 박모 교수를 조만간 소환해 조사할 예정이다. (코리아 헤럴드)

Severance Hospital raided over ‘contract killing‘ sick note
Korean prosecutors raided Yonsei Severance Hospital on Thursday to investigate whether one of its staff wrote a false doctor’s note for a woman convicted of arranging a contract-killing.
The doctor allegedly exaggerated the diagnosis, helping the criminal patient to delay the execution of the sentence.
The 68-year-old woman was sentenced to life imprisonment in 2004 for hiring a hit-man to kill an innocent college student who she believed was having an affair with her son-in-law.
But she delayed the execution of the sentence five times, citing health problems such as breast cancer and Parkinson’s disease.
The victim’s family sued the doctor in April, claiming that he helped the convict to stay in a luxurious room in the hospital by exaggerating her health problems.
The prosecutors plan to summon the doctor for interrogation.
