A Korean international student man in his twenties who illegally photographed the bodies of more than 20 women at a UK university was caught by the police.
According to the Daily Mail of the British media on the 1st (local time), the police found 24 illegally filmed videos edited with a professional program on the mobile phone of a 21-year-old college student Kim Mo (21). The man secretly photographed the inside of his skirt in situations such as buying stationery, women crouching in the kitchen, and walking up and down the stairs to attend a welcoming event for new students.
The man was caught in 2019 when a female student who entered the dormitory public sour room discovered that a cell phone hidden behind a trash bin was recorded. He was arrested in January of last year.
Kim, who lives in New Malden, southwest of London, UK, admitted 22 cases of voyeurism and two cases of attempted voyeurism in Manchester Crown Court. He was ordered to complete a sex crime education program, 220 hours of unpaid work, and 36 months of community service. He will be subject to a sexual assault prevention order and will be listed on the sex offender list for five years.
Police confirmed the identities of four of the victims. One victim said, “I can’t believe he invaded my privacy so much. Now I have to check the sneak shots every time I prepare to exercise.” Another victim said, “Since then, there have been problems with relationships.”
The judge said, “The victims are feeling pain and anger from his actions,” as the reason for the sentence, and “considering that he is young and can be managed in the community.” The judge criticized, “It seems that the perpetrator has been in isolation for a long time, but there are obvious victims.”
Meanwhile, the Daily Mail revealed all of Kim’s nationality, as well as school, name, and residence.
