Man Serving Prison Sentence for Stalking Issued 'Contact Prohibition' After Sending Letter from Jail

Prosecutors have issued a "contact prohibition" order against a 29-year-old man who is currently serving a prison sentence for stalking offenses. The man, identified as A, sent a letter from Jeonju Prison to the family of the victim, a female YouTuber named B, containing messages such as "See you soon, I'll come find you." The letter was sent on July 22nd. This action follows A's conviction in the first trial, where he received a one-year prison sentence for stalking B and her family's business. The prosecution requested and obtained provisional measures from the court, including a written warning against stalking, a prohibition on approaching within 100 meters of the victim and her family, and a ban on electronic communications like phone calls, emails, and messages. "We are reviewing various measures, including amending the indictment, so that the defendant can receive a punishment commensurate with his crime in the appellate trial," a prosecutor stated. "Although the defendant's release is not imminent, we will do our best to ensure the victim's personal safety."
