The police, who are investigating the death of a Gimpo City civil servant who ended his life due to a malicious complaint, have booked the identity of the civil servant and two complainants who posted malicious comments on a cafe.
Gimpo Police Station announced on the 26th that it had booked two complainants, Mr. A (30s, female) and Mr. B (40s), without detention, on charges of defamation under the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, etc.
Mr. A is accused of posting a malicious post about Mr. C (37, level 7), a Gimpo city official, on an online cafe and disclosing his personal information. Mr. B is accused of posting a malicious post related to Mr. C on an online cafe and calling the Gimpo City Hall duty office to threaten him.
The police identified seven people who posted posts about Mr. C or called in to complain, but five people were judged to be simple complaints or comments and did not forward the complaint.
The police charged Mr. A with defamation, and Mr. B with defamation and intimidation.
Mr. C was found dead in a car parked on a road in Seo-gu, Incheon, around 3:40 pm on the 5th of last month.
It was confirmed that Mr. C suffered a complaint phone call on February 29, five days before his death, when vehicle congestion occurred due to pothole (road digging) repair work.
Gimpo City recently submitted an application for recognition of death in the line of duty to Mr. C’s bereaved family and the Government Employees Pension Service.
