스토킹 피해자 보호·지원 강화 방안

Abstract

It is important to point out that stalking is a process of action, not a one-time act. This study intends to take a comprehensive approach to the improvement of operations to protect victims of stalking. There is a need for a discussion that can realistically protect and support victims of stalking. It aims to try a variety of approaches, such as what the main components are, what is needed, and to what extent the main role and setting of the activity will be considered, focusing on the stalking victim. Since the main direction of the study was focused on victims of stalking, the review of laws was limited to concepts and definitions, and data provided by institutions and data from previous studies were used for data analysis. Considering the purpose of the enactment of the Stalking Punishment Act , the contents and proposals reviewed mainly on the protection of victims of stalking crimes are as follows. First, a victim-centered approach strategy considering the characteristics of the victim is needed. Second, it is necessary to expand the discretion of field police officers. Third, it is necessary to accumulate and manage data on stalking. Fourth, it is necessary to set priorities for dedicated personnel and police activities. Fifth, it is proposed to prepare a follow-up management plan after detection and enforcement.
