The US Justice Department demanded repatriation for 23-year-old Son Mo, who runs a site that distributes child pornography on the Dark Web.

Yesterday (24) CBS radio 'Kim Hyun-jeong's news show' reported that US law enforcement officials confirmed that he had officially requested Son's repatriation under the extradition treaty.

On the day, the media was interviewed by Professor Won Jae-cheon of the Graduate School of International Law, Handong University, who said, "Because Mr. Son broke both American and Korean law, if the victim is in the United States, the United States has jurisdiction." Can be claimed and will be allowed in the Korean court. "

According to a complaint issued by the US Department of Justice, there are nine charges against Mr. Sohn: conspiracy and execution of child pornography, production of sexual descriptions for minors, and conspiracy and execution of child pornography. If Mr. Sohn is forcibly repatriated and tried in the United States, he will be sentenced to five to 20 years in prison on his own.
Earlier today, the US Justice Department said it had caught 310 child pornography site operators and users on the Dark Web as a result of an international cooperation investigation in 32 countries. Among them, 223 Koreans were born, and Sohn, who runs a child pornography site in 2015, was found to have collected about 400 million won of bitcoin through distribution of child pornography.

But when Son is already sentenced to one year and six months in prison and sentenced to jail, criticism continues to be a punishment. On the 21st of the Blue House National Petition Bulletin, a petition appeared, saying, `` I want proper punishment of Son and site users who have operated children's pornography sites. ''

In relation to this, Choi Young-ae, chairman of the National Human Rights Commission of Korea, said in a national audit that "the level of punishment for child pornography and sexual abuse is too low." "No matter how much freedom of expression and sexual freedom is allowed abroad, However, in Korean society, it is not filtered well and cannot be punished properly. ”
