The government task force arrested 19 individuals involved in illegal gun manufacturing and distribution, seizing 3 guns and 338 imitation firearms.
The task force was established after the Incheon Songdo homemade gun murder case in July last year and has been working to block illegal gun manufacturing and distribution through information sharing and investigations.
They plan to continue investigations on high-risk individuals through information sharing and system improvements, and to amend the enforcement decree of the Firearms and Explosives Control Act.
