A member of the public organization for 5·18 wounded victims who sent sexually insulting messages to Kim Hyung-mi, director of the May Mothers' House, has been referred to the prosecution.
On the 26th, the Gwangju Western Police Station announced that they had sent A (62), a member of the 5·18 wounded victims who sexually insulted the director of the May Mothers' House, to the prosecution.
A is accused of sending about 30 messages via SNS to Kim Hyung-mi, director of the May Mothers' House, that caused sexual shame or disgust (violation of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes, etc.).
