A male nursing assistant in his 20s who secretly touched and filmed female patients who had a sleep endoscopy was arrested.



The Seocho Police Station in Seoul announced on the 9th that a 24-year-old man who works as a nursing assistant at a hospital in Seocho-gu had been arrested and sent to charge of quasi-rape and quasi-forced molestation.



Jung is accused of quasi-rape against women who were sleeping in the recovery room after undergoing a sleep endoscopy for six months from October of last year.



In addition, it is said that he touched the women's body 19 times and filmed the victims lying down 22 times.



At least 12 victims have been identified through police investigations.



In the police investigation, it is known that Jung admitted to all the crimes, saying that he "committed the crime out of sexual curiosity."



The police received a complaint from the victim who recognized the crime because the anesthesia did not release after a sleep endoscopy in April and started an investigation.



Police seized and searched Jung's PC and cell phone and secured 37 photos of the victims.
