Edit: Inaccurate translation. These are the sentences that are being requested by the prosecuters. Not the actual sentencing given by the judge.

I haven't seen it around the forums yet, so I'll translate as best as I can.

The Starcraft Progamers who were involved in illegal gambling have been sentenced to jail based on how involved they were. Progamer Won must pay a fee of 3,000,000 Won (Roughly $3000) and is sentenced to jail for two years. Progamer Ma has been sentenced to jail for 1 year and 6 months.

From 4 pm to 8 pm, the Prosecutors who have been picked to prosecute and research the scandal of Illegal gambling in the Starcraft Progaming community held and resumed its 5th trial.

Broker Park have been sentenced to two years of jail and former Progamers Jung and Choi and a Self-business Owner Mr.Lee has been sentenced to 1 year of jail each.

The Final Sentence for the accused will be held on the upcoming 10th of September at 10 AM.

However, the sentence looks like this for now (will have to wait for the Final Sentence, but this is what has been sentenced for now):

Broker Park: 2 years of jail.
Progamer Won: 2 years of jail + 3,000,000 Won (Roughly $3000)
Progamer Ma: 1 year and 6 months of jail.
Soccer Player Jung: 1 year and 6 months of jail.
Banker Park: 1 year of jail.
Former Progamer Jung: 1 year of jail.
Former Progamer Choi: 1 year of jail.
Self-business Owner Lee: 1 year of jail.

Will be updated as more people will be sentenced, or if the above sentences change.

P.S. My first translation, a bit rough, but this is the general idea.

Source

EDIT 1:

Progamer Ma has stated: "Due to the mistake I have made, I deeply regret my behavior and actions. Although I have to leave the seven years I have been a part of E-Sports, I would like to say sorry to my teammates, my coaches, and everyone who has been a part of E-sports. If I was given another chance, I would contribute everything I can to society and live a rightful, quiet life to work off my indecencies."

Progamer Won has stated: "At first, I did not know what I have done and caused was a big deal, but now that I do realize what I have done, what I have destroyed and contaminated, I am deeply sorry for the fans and my parents. If the court will be more lenient on my charges, I will try my hardest to live a better, and a more respectful life."

Source 2

EDIT 2:

Progamer Ma = Savior
Progamer Won = Justin

Thanks GTR:
Jung = By.1st, former Sparkyz Terran
Choi = Shinhwa, former Hwaseung Zerg
