The personal information of Lee Myung-su, the suspect who consecutively set fire to two patent law firms in Yeoksam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, injuring 26 people, has been made public.
The police held a deliberation committee on the disclosure of personal information on October 28 and decided to reveal the suspect's identity, citing "the severity of the damage, the brutality of the crime, and sufficient evidence of the offense."
However, even among suspects who commit serious crimes, some have their identities disclosed while others do not.
What are the criteria that determine whether a suspect's identity is made public?
