대낮 주택가 야외주차장에서 20대 여성을 상대로 음란행위를 한 혐의로 형사 입건된 경찰 간부가 징계위원회에 회부된 끝에 해임 됐다.인천지방경찰청 감찰계는 공연음란 혐의로 불구속 입건된 A(43) 경위를 해임했다고 31일 밝혔다.인천경찰청은 최근 열린 징계위원회에서 A 경위가 경찰 공무원 신분으로서 품위 유지 의무를 위반한 것으로 보고 해임을 결정했다.A 경위는 당일 징계위에 참석해 기존 경찰 조사에서 한 진술을 반복하며 선처를 호소한 것으로 알려졌다.그는 경찰 조사 당시 "아무도 없는 주차장에 숨어 자위행위를 했다"며 음란행위를 한 사실은 인정하면서도 "다른 사람에게 피해를 줄 의도는 없었다"고 진술했다.그러나 피해 여성은 "인기척이 나 뒤돌아보니 한 남성이 바지를 벗고 음란행위를 했고 이후 달아났다"며 상반된 진술을 했다. 해임은 파면 보다는 한 단계 수위가 낮지만 중징계에 해당한다. 해임된 공무원은 3년간 공직에 재임용될 수 없다. 공무원 연금은 25%가 삭감되지만 퇴직급여는 온
