[Asia Economy Kim Jung-wan, Intern Reporter] A man in his 40s who sexually assaulted his teenage stepdaughter for six years has been arrested by the police.


The Jeonbuk Provincial Police Agency announced on the 17th that they have detained and are investigating Mr. A, in his 40s, on charges of violating the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes (rape within family relations).


Mr. A is accused of repeatedly sexually assaulting his teenage stepdaughter, Ms. B, over the past six years. Investigations revealed that Mr. A threatened Ms. B by regularly sending text messages demanding sexual relations.


Ms. B reportedly did not disclose the abuse because she was worried about causing distress to her mother and younger sibling.


However, Ms. B's mother recently discovered Mr. A's crimes and reported them to the police. Mr. A is said to have admitted to the offenses.



The police have detained Mr. A and are conducting a detailed investigation into the circumstances.
