Famous variety personality Yombie Rabbi aka "Congo Prince" is in prison for prostitution fraud.
According to the court on the 6th, the Daejeon High Court sentenced Rabbi to 4 years in prison on May 15th after he was indicted on charges on attempted special robbery. Rabbi planned to commit fraud in 2019 by using chat app with Lim and Lee, where they lured men to purchase sex with underage girls in their cars. They then used cars to block the victims' escape routes preventing the men from leaving their cars and extorted about 20 million won (~$18,000) at least 7 times through assault and intimidation.
The court stated, "They committed the crime several times. The crime was so bad to the extent that victims' injuries were very serious. We decided on the sentence considering the fact that the victim didn't want to be punished due to an agreement."
Rabbi is currently serving time in Cheonan prison and the Ministry of Justice is expected to decide whether to deport him once he concludes his sentence.
Rabbi is a refugee from the Democratic Republic of Congo and known to public after his appearance on KBS1 program. He later earned the title 'Congo Prince' and appeared on many varieties.
- [+3,902, -41] Deport him...good-bye.
- [+2,615, -47] Banish him. He only got accepted in because he's a refugee and he used it to learn and abuse Koreansã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ he can meet the conditions in Congo where he came from.
- [+2,397, -48] Guys, this may be confusing but it's not popular variety star Jonathan who went to prison but his brother 'Rabbi'. There are many false articles circulating around using Jonathan's name in the title and his photo for clickbait.
- [+1,551, -42] His younger brother went to a foreign school and is living well as a YouTuber...why would he think to do this?
- [+1,405, -82] He used a minor to lure men and extorted money from them when they showed up..? And not just that but he assaulted them in the vehicle after luring them through sex with a minor...? Wow, this is terrible, he needs to suffer punishment.
- [+342, -26] Banish the men that prostituted too!
- [+281, -78] This is why we shouldn't be allowing in refugees in the first place
- [+98, -6] I vaguely remember him saying on air that the image of black people in Korea is not good so for him to do this...something in him must've snapped. In the end, he ended up causing more damage to the image of black people himselfã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ã…‹ goodbye
