A man in his 30s who called or sent a message to a teenage teenager who lent his cell phone several times saying’I want to get along’ was sentenced to probation at the first trial.
According to the court on the 6th, Judge Kim Joon-hyuk, who was the only criminal 5 of the Seoul Central District Court, sentenced A (36), who was charged with violating the Information and Communication Network Act on the 2nd, to six months in prison and two years of probation.
In April of last year, in front of a bus stop in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, Mr. A approached Ms. B, who was then 16 years old, borrowed a mobile phone, and then called herself to find Ms. B’s phone number.
Mr. A is accused of calling or sending a text message to Ms. B four times for a month from the day after finding Ms. B’s number.
Mr. A called Miss B and said,’I’m the one who borrowed the cell phone, and I’m grateful for lending it. He said,’I want to be close,”I’m a student too,’ and expressed Ms. B as’cute’ and’pretty’.
They also sent a text message saying’Let’s be friends’ and’Let’s play 2:2 this Sunday’.
Ms. B expressed her intention to’do not contact me’, but Ms. A did not care and tried repeatedly to contact them.
In addition to the call, I tried to make a phone call 20 to 30 times, and when Ms. B blocked the call without answering the call, she made a call with the caller number display limit.
When Ms. B’s family or friend answered an incoming call due to the caller ID restriction instead, it turned out that there were several cases where she just hung up silently.
During the trial, Mr. A insisted that “Ms. B thought that she agreed to associate with him and contacted him.”
However, the judiciary decided that “the victim has not explicitly agreed to the relationship,” and “it is acknowledged that the victim’s intention has been clearly known, but has been ignored and attempted to contact them.”
The judge pointed out that “contrary to the will of the victim, a 16-year-old girl I met for the first time, calling and sending messages several times, mentioning the person’s appearance or asking for companionship, is sufficient to create fear or anxiety in the victim.” did.
He criticized, saying, “I doubt whether he is seriously reflecting on his own faults,” he said, saying, “Even though he has already committed a crime in the same way and has been sentenced to fines several times, he has repeatedly committed the crime.”
