"I Will Sexually Assault Your Daughter and Throw Acid": Family of School Bullying Victim Receives Threats

The family of a middle school student who reported a school bullying case has been left in shock after receiving threatening text messages from an unidentified sender, warning that they would "commit sexual assault and carry out an acid attack."

Since yesterday, June 24, public outrage has been growing after a parent living in Sejong City shared their story on a social media bulletin board, claiming to be receiving threats from someone presumed to be associated with the perpetrators of the school bullying.

The father of the second-year middle school victim, identified as A, stated, "My daughter suffered from school bullying for an entire year and eventually reported it to the Sejong City Office of Education," adding, "The school bullying case has been officially filed."

According to A, a few days after the report was filed, his wife received a text message containing horrific threats.

The message read, "I will sexually assault your daughter and throw acid on her face. Just wait and see if I can do it or not."

"My child, who was already struggling with school bullying, is now suffering from secondary victimization after the report," A said, expressing his devastation.

The case is currently under investigation by the Sejong Nambu Police Station.

However, A expressed his distress, saying, "I was told that it is difficult to identify the culprit because the message was sent through an overseas server."

Speculation has since emerged that the person who sent the threatening messages could be a parent or acquaintance of the student who committed the bullying.

In response, the police stated, "We are currently conducting an investigation, and the suspect who sent the messages has not yet been identified."
