It has been confirmed that two out of three people suspected of making a sexual exploitation of a minor, such as Jo Joo-bin (24, constrained), and distributing it to the doctoral room of the Internet messenger telegram were arrested.

A police official said today (2nd) that two out of three people known as Jo-Bin Cho's accomplices are being arrested and analyzing mobile phone forensic data, and that the remaining ones are being verified to see if they are among those arrested.

Earlier, Mr. Cho's lawyer said yesterday that three people with nicknames such as 'buta', 'mantis', and 'Igiya' jointly operated 'Dr. Bang' with Cho.

A police officer said, "We have a legal review team in the investigation room and are reviewing precedents." .

The police have increased the number of international air-conditioning partners from the previous six to the last 15 to investigate foreign messengers such as telegrams.

A police official said, "The location of the Telegram headquarters has not been confirmed." The Telegram announcement said that the headquarters is in Dubai and is in consultation with the Dubai Police.

Until yesterday, the police arrested a total of 140 people, including a chat room operator who produced and distributed sexual exploitation in social networking networks (SNS) such as telegrams, and arrested 23 of them.

Police have identified a total of 98 criminal acts, including chat rooms with sexual exploits.

Eight cases of sexual exploitation were produced and distributed, and 90 cases of other pornography were distributed.

The police finished 13 investigations to some extent and sent them to the prosecutors' office, but they continue investigating 85 related cases, including threats against women, including minors, to take sexual exploits or to redistribute them.

The police are spurring related investigations, such as paying Joe and identifying paid members who have participated in the chat room, even after arresting Jo, who ran the 'Ph.

In addition, while pursuing 'n room' and operator 'God', which are considered 'initiatives' of chat rooms that share sexual exploits, they are also investigating those who have redistributed sexual exploits from these chat rooms.

A police official said, "We are designating the chief who has been in charge of cyber investigation for 20 years as a responsible investigator to support the 'Gatgat' investigation by the Gyeongbuk Provincial Police Agency." We are trying to arrest quickly. "

To date, there are 29 chat room operators among the suspects admitted to the police.

There were 14 diffusers, and 97 were confirmed to have had sexual exploitation.

None of the suspects are underage criminals under the age of 14.

The police are analyzing subscriber status based on the 'nickname' information participating in each chat room.

Previously, the police confirmed about 15,000 of the nicknames that participated in the 'Dr. Bang' and were grasping their personal information.

The telegram nickname does not give the exact size because it can be changed arbitrarily, but it can be used as a basis for estimating the number of chat room users as it has been excluded.

According to the police, a total of 103 victims have been identified to date.

Among the victims whose personal information was confirmed, 26 were the most teenagers, 17 in their 20s, 8 in their 30s, and 1 in their 40s.

There were also 51 cases where the age could not be specified.

It was said that some victims had made extreme choices, but police officials dismissed it as "nothing has been confirmed."

The National Police Agency has established the 'Digital Sex Crimes Special Investigation Headquarters' to eradicate the digital sex crimes that have taken place in the wake of the 'n-room' incident, which has greatly strengthened the investigation.

The Headquarters of the Special Investigation Division is head of the Cyber ​​Safety Bureau, the head of the investigation is the head of the investigation, and the Women's Safety Planning Officer is the head of the victims' protection team.

A police official said, "Digital sexual crime reports can be made anytime, anywhere by visiting the police station or by telephone (112 · 182 · 117) or on the Internet website.”
