Demanding harsh punishment for online sex crimes

A member of a civic group dedicated to fighting online sex crimes calls for harsh punishment of Cho Ju-bin, the mastermind of a notorious Telegram blackmail ring, in front of the Supreme Court in Seoul, Thursday. The top court confirmed a lower court's 42-year prison sentence for Cho, who was indicted in April last year for organizing a criminal ring with other Telegram users, blackmailing women including minors into filming sexually exploitative content and distributing the materials to paying members of a Telegram group chat.
