I am very interested in the so-called doctor's room case and how much punishment can be given to the mothers. However, they are questioning whether the prosecution could ask for the allegations of criminal groups such as gangsters. If you do this, you can be sentenced to maximum imprisonment. Here, the government and the ruling party are considering ways to eliminate the statute of limitations against sex crimes against children and youth.

The prosecution today (5th) conducted the first major investigation against Cho Joo-bin, a doctor's room operator, and Chun Mo, a public official at Geoje City Hall.

The purpose of this study is to understand the facts about the roles and relationships of the two people in the operation of the doctor's room and to make a difference.

Prosecutors are considering whether or not to apply for crimes organized by criminal groups that can sentence up to the maximum possible imprisonment for doctoral room operators.

It seems to take into account the social public opinion that it should be punished, but the key is to prove whether there is a specific hierarchical order and role division inside the doctor's room to apply the law.

It is known that Jo Joo-bin admits that he has committed sexual exploitation, but is ignorant of his accomplices.

The prosecution is planning to interrogate other accomplices, such as Kang Mo, a 24-year-old social worker.

In the midst of this, the Democratic Party held a party meeting and decided to actively consider ways to abolish the statute of limitations on sexual crimes against minors over the age of 13.

The government also plans to promote the revision of the Youth Sex Protection Act within the 20th National Assembly and expand support for victims.
