Two diplomats from the Pakistan Embassy in Korea were caught allegedly shoplifting at a store in Seoul, according to police, Saturday.

토요일 경찰에 따르면 주한 파키스탄 대사관 소속 직원 2명이 서울의 한 상점에서 물건을 훔치다 붙잡혔다.


Yongsan Police Station said the two were caught stealing items worth 11,000 won ($10) and 1,900 won ($1.70), respectively, at the same store in Itaewon, Yongsan District, on different dates.

서울 용산경찰서는 이 둘이 용산구 이태원의 같은 매장에서 다른 날짜에 각각 11,000원과 1900원 상당의 물건을 훔치다 붙잡혔다고 밝혔다.


One allegedly stole chocolate treats worth 1,900 won, Jan. 10, and the other a hat worth 11,000 won, Feb. 23.

전해진 바에 따르면, 한 명은 지난 1월 10일, 1천900원어치의 초콜릿을 훔쳤고 다른 한 명은 2월 23일, 1만1천원 상당의 모자를 훔쳤다.


After the hat was stolen, an employee at the store filed a police report shortly afterwards, and the law enforcement authorities identified the suspect through CCTV footage as a 35-year-old diplomat of the Pakistan Embassy.

모자가 도난당하자 매장 직원은 즉시 경찰에 신고했고, 경찰은 CCTV 영상 분석을 통해 용의자가 파키스탄대사관 직원(35)인 것을 확인했다.


Following an investigation, officers closed the case without booking the suspect because of diplomatic immunity.

조사 이후 경찰은 외교관 면책특권을 이유로 용의자를 입건하지 않고 사건을 내사종결했다.


Under the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, diplomats and their families may avoid arrest, detention or indictment under certain laws of their host country.

외교관계에 관한 빈 협약(비엔나 협약)에 따르면, 외교관과 그 가족들은 주재국의 법에 따른 체포, 구금 또는 기소를 피할 수 있다.


The police noted that the store owner did not wish for punishment as a colleague of the diplomat paid for the item.

경찰은 물건을 훔친 파키스탄 대사관 직원의 동료가 물품 대금을 대신 지불했고 점주가 처벌을 원치 않았다는 점을 언급했다.


The other alleged shoplifter, who also holds diplomatic immunity, remains under investigation according to the police.

외교관 면책특권을 갖고 있는 또 다른 절도 용의자는 아직 내사 중이라고 경찰은 밝혔다.
