Some members of the Daejeon City Council receive e-mails for 'illegal composites'...a police investigation

Police have launched an investigation after some members of the Daejeon City Council received e-mails with illegal composites attached.

The Daejeon Metropolitan Police Agency said it received a related report from the Daejeon City Council and started tracking the sender.

The e-mail is said to have a video of the lawmakers' face photos synthesized with pornography, and threatening content is also written.

The Daejeon City Council said it has been found that about five male lawmakers have received threatening e-mails so far, and is investigating whether there are any additional victims.
