Police Elevate Election Crime Response to Level 3

The police will elevate the investigation response level for election-related crimes to Level 3, coinciding with the start of candidate registration for the nationwide local elections on the 14th.

To counter the spread of disinformation using AI technology, the police will activate an 'AI Manipulated Content Analysis Response System.' Beyond simply verifying authenticity, the plan is to reconstruct the entire process from content creation to dissemination using digital evidence analysis techniques to prove charges.

Furthermore, the police will respond immediately to election violence and will provide identity protection measures and up to 200 million won in rewards to those who report or provide tips on election crimes.
