[Asia Economy Reporter Donghoon Jeong] An employee of the Gwonseon District Office in Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do, was found to have leaked personal information, prompting the police to launch an investigation.

On the 18th, the Hyehwa Police Station in Seoul booked employee B of the Economic and Transportation Division at the Gwonseon District Office in Suwon-si on charges of violating the Personal Information Protection Act, and conducted a three-hour search and seizure of the Economic and Transportation Division at the Gwonseon District Office and B's residence in Suwon starting at 11 a.m.

A police official stated that this is unrelated to the 'Lee Seok-jun case' and said, "We received intelligence and initiated an internal investigation." Previously, a private investigator who sold the residential information of a woman under protective custody, who was later killed by Lee Seok-jun, identified the address through public official A of the Gwonseon District Office.
