A man in his 50s was apprehended by the police for repeatedly placing body hair on his subordinate's desk and work uniform. However, only property damage charges were recognized, not sexual violence charges.


On the 17th, the Nonhyeon Police Station in Incheon announced that it had referred a man in his 50s, identified as A, to the prosecution without detention on charges of property damage. A is accused of repeatedly placing body hair on the desk, computer, mouse, and work uniform of his female subordinate, identified as B, at the office of a company in Incheon in September of last year, thereby damaging property. It was also found that he had smeared foreign substances on B's desk and computer mouse.


B filed a complaint against A for violating the Act on Special Cases Concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, violation of the Stalking Punishment Act, insult, and property damage. However, the police dismissed the first three charges and only recognized property damage. It is reported that B is demanding a reinvestigation in response to the police's decision to recognize only the property damage charge.



A police official stated, "We applied the property damage charge because some items had to be discarded as a result of A's actions," and added, "The other charges were not forwarded because they did not meet the legal requirements."
