Daejeon's decision to reveal the identity of the person in his 40s who murdered his ex-lover after reporting stalking (comprehensive)

The release was postponed due to the suspect's objection... Scheduled to be released as early as the 9th

(Daejeon = Yonhap News) Reporter Byun Seon-jin = The personal information of a man in his 40s who was arrested on charges of murder (murder) a year later of his ex-lover who reported stalking victimization will be revealed.

The Daejeon Police Agency announced in a media announcement on the 2nd that it held a personal information disclosure deliberation committee and decided to disclose Mr. A's personal information, and that according to the results of the committee, the chief of Daejeon Central Police Station made the final decision to disclose it.

However, as Mr. A expressed objection to the decision to disclose his personal information, the police plan to release his personal information as early as the 9th after a grace period of more than 5 days in accordance with the Act on Disclosure of Personal Information of Suspects of Certain Serious Crimes.

Previously, on the 29th of last month, the police decided not to hold a committee meeting because the bereaved family expressed that they did not want their personal information to be disclosed and they were concerned about secondary harm. However, the police later changed their mind and held a committee meeting, saying they wanted their personal information to be disclosed.

Person A was arrested on the 27th of the same month on charges of assaulting and strangling Ms. B at her home, a woman in her 40s in Jung-gu, Daejeon, on the 24th of last month and then running away.

After committing the crime, he removed the SIM card from his cell phone, took a taxi to Incheon Airport, and then fled to Gangneung, Gangwon-do. He was arrested at a lodging establishment in Gangneung the day after the crime.

During the police investigation, Mr. A claimed that it was an accidental crime, but the police are deploying mobile phone digital forensics and a profiler to determine whether the crime was planned and the exact motive for the crime.

Mr. B reported Mr. A to 112 for stalking in October last year, but the case was postponed in November of that year as he expressed that he did not want to be punished.

In December of the same year, a 112 report was made while the two were fighting, but the police concluded the incident on the spot after determining that there was no suspicion of crime.

The police plan to forward the case to the Public Prosecution Office on the 3rd, when Mr. A's detention period expires.
