Pastor slapped with third molest charge


GEORGE TOWN: A South Korean pastor who was charged with two counts of outraging the modesty of two men in Butterworth about two weeks ago has been slapped with another similar charge in a Magistrate’s Court here.

However, the charge was not read out to Jee Jong Hoon, 54, who is speech- and hearing-impaired, as there was no international sign language interpreter available, and no plea was recorded yesterday.
