A 60-year-old realtor was indicted without detention on the charge of slander against President Park Geun-hye prior to the presidential election last year, Seoul prosecutors said Monday.
According to the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office, the suspect, identified by his surname Kim, allegedly posted “malignant” online comments about Park and her family members from September to November.
Kim reportedly depicted Park’s father, late military strongman Park Chung-hee, as a dictator and wrote slanderous comments about the president’s mother and brother.
Prosecutors said Kim wrote the posts because he personally did not like Park and wanted her to lose in the presidential election in December.
Kim was charged with violation of the election campaign law.
