[Asia Economy Reporter Song Seung-yoon] The police are accelerating their investigation into the second wave of online and offline harassment against the victim who accused the late former Seoul Mayor Park Won-soon of sexual harassment.


According to the police on the 28th, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's 'Park Won-soon Case' task force (TF) has conducted raids on the servers of four websites?Clien, E-Torrent, FM Korea, and DC Inside?and is reportedly securing data related to the authors of posts and comments that insulted and defamed the victim as part of the second wave of harassment.


Earlier, the victim who accused the late former Mayor Park of sexual harassment filed an additional complaint with the police, requesting an investigation into the authors of malicious posts published on websites.



The police plan to take strict measures against those identified as participants in the second wave of harassment through the investigation, applying charges such as defamation under the Information and Communications Network Act and insult under the Criminal Act.
