Police Seek Arrest Warrants for 'SinlimFam' Members from Depression Gallery

Charges Including Violation of Missing Children Act, Narcotics Control Act, and Threats

The police have applied for an arrest warrant for one member of the Sillim Fam in connection with allegations of luring minors to consume alcohol and drugs and committing sexual exploitation.

On the 25th, the Seoul Gwanak Police Station announced that it had applied for an arrest warrant for a man in his 20s, identified as A, who is suspected of violating the Missing Children Act, intimidation, and the Narcotics Control Act the previous day.

According to the police, A is accused of keeping a minor victim, who had run away from home last year and was reported missing, at his residence in Sillim-dong, Gwanak-gu, Seoul, and not allowing the victim to return home. A is also suspected of using drugs and intimidating his underage partner.

A underwent a pre-arrest detention hearing (warrant review) at the Seoul Central District Court on the same day.

The police plan to investigate the allegations surrounding the Sillim Fam, including whether sexual exploitation crimes were committed, as soon as A is detained.

The Sillim Fam is a group of individuals who met through the DC Inside Depression Gallery and live together. Similarly, the police have also booked four members of the 'Sindaebang Fam,' who gathered through the Depression Gallery, to verify criminal charges.
