VIXX’s Ravi Is Reportedly Booked In Connection To Illegal Military Exemption Scheme
VIXX‘s Ravi has been booked on suspicion of violating military law.
On January 12, SBS 8 News reported that a joint investigation team led by prosecutors and the military’s affair office had booked VIXX’s Ravi on suspicion of violating military law. The joint investigation team suspects Ravi had falsely claimed he suffered from epilepsy so that he would receive a lower health score and an exemption from active duty.
검찰과 병무청 합동수사팀은 최근 아이돌 그룹 빅스 소속의 래퍼 라비를 병역법 위반 혐의로 입건했습니다
합동수사팀은 라비도 뇌전증을 앓고있다며 재검을 신청하는 방식으로 신체등급을 낮춰 4급 보충역 판정을 받은것으로 의심하고 있습니다

A joint investigation team led by prosecutors and the military’s affair office recently booked the VIXX’s rapper Ravi on suspicion of violating military conscription laws.
The joint investigation team suspects Ravi had gotten an exemption by claiming he had epilepsy and receiving a lower health grade by asking for a re-evaluation.
Ravi will be summoned soon for further evaluation.

The joint investigation team stated that they would summon Ravi for further questioning. Ravi’s label GROOVL1N earlier released a statement in which they stated they are still looking into the allegations.
Ravi enlisted in October 2022 and is currently serving in the military as a public service worker. Controversy arose when the news outlet Joy News24 first reported that Ravi was suspected of being the “famous rapper” that was in connection to an illegal military exemption scheme in which former military officials aided individuals to receive exemptions.
