Accordingly, intimidation using sexual exploitation material will be punished with three years in prison, and coercion will be punished with five years or more in prison.
The law will also introduce an 'emergency confidential investigation' that will allow for emergency investigations into digital sexual crimes, such as DeepFei, without prior police approval.
On the 19th, the National Assembly's Committee on Women and Family held a bill review subcommittee meeting and introduced the Child and Adolescent Sexual Protection Act and the Sexual Violence Prevention and Victim Protection Act.
The amendment to the Youth Sexual Protection Act will create new penalties for the use of sexual exploitation material to blackmail and coerce children and adolescents, and will improve the existing penalties for sexual violence.
The bill includes provisions that impose heavier penalties than the current law, including sexual exploitation using deep-diving technology. Under the current Sexual Violence Punishment Act, blackmail using sexual exploitation is punishable by more than one year, and coercion is punishable by more than one year.
The revised bill stipulates that if such crimes are committed against children or adolescents, they will be punished with imprisonment of three years or more and five years or more, respectively.
The amendment will allow police to take emergency measures without prior approval to investigate digital sexual crimes such as DeepFei, which spreads quickly, if an emergency investigation is required.
The bill also includes provisions to introduce open investigations. In closed investigations, police will approach crime scenes or suspected perpetrators online or offline without disclosing their identities, and collect evidence and materials.
This is an investigation in which information is collected, and is different from a 'fake identity investigation' in which one's identity is false. Under current law, a covert investigation into digital sexual crimes is only possible with prior approval from the Advanced Police Station.
The revised Sexual Violence Prevention Act stipulates that the deletion of illegally recorded material and support for victims to return to their normal lives are the responsibility of the state, and that the state and local governments will support the deletion of not only illegally recorded material but also the identity information of victims.
The revised bill also includes provisions to set up a new operating basis for the "Digital Sexual Crime Victim Support Center," which will provide support for the deletion of illegally recorded material and personal information of victims,
This enabled preventive work to be carried out.
