[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Gyumin] A man in his 40s accused of sexually harassing a teenage girl on the subway has been apprehended by the police.


The Special Judicial Police for Railways (Special Investigation Unit) announced on the 25th that they have booked and are investigating Mr. A, a man in his 40s, on charges of forcible molestation.


Mr. A is accused of resting his head on the body of the victim sitting next to him and touching parts of her body on the airport railroad train heading toward Incheon International Airport at Hongdae Entrance Station in Mapo-gu around 10 p.m. on the 15th.


The police, who responded to the report, arrested Mr. A at Cheongna International City Station located in Seo-gu, Incheon. Afterwards, the police accompanied Mr. A voluntarily, but due to difficulties in conducting a late-night investigation, he was released to go home.



On the 21st, the Special Investigation Unit took over the case and stated, “We plan to summon the victim and witnesses to thoroughly investigate the facts.”
