A police officer suspected of acquiring a sex trader while arresting prostitution was arrested by the prosecution.

The Seoul North Prosecutor's Office said that he was arresting a police officer belonging to the Dongdaemun Police Station, who was accused of leaking secrets for public affairs, such as accompanying a prostitute to the scene when conducting a crackdown on a wind farm.

Earlier, on the 20th of last month, police sent police to the prosecution in disarmament on the prosecution of police officer A on charges of secret leaks in public affairs and postponement of duties.

The prosecution took over the case and was looking into the relationship between Inspector A and the prostitutes, and was deemed to be in need of arrest.

Inspector A explained with the intention that "the person who was found in the past crackdown on sex trafficking was used as a private information source, but he did not know whether the information source was a real sex trader."

Police took action on behalf of Inspector A on the 21st of last month.
