I want to file a criminal complaint for malicious comments on Instagram.

If you have repeatedly received malicious comments and comments containing false facts on Instagram, filing a criminal complaint for Instagram malicious comments is fully possible.

Malicious comments go beyond simple criticism and can be subject to criminal punishment such as defamation or insult.

Particularly, if false facts are spread or repeated slander occurs, the level of punishment can be even higher.

If you wish to file a criminal complaint, you must first capture the entire comment screen to collect evidence.

The collection should include the writer's nickname, the date and time of writing, and the post URL, and it must be verifiable as the original.

In a situation like the one you described, where one person repeatedly posts malicious comments, you should save all the multiple comments posted to prove that the malicious comments were continuously and repeatedly written.

Additionally, if you have stress or mental anguish due to the malicious comments, it would help to prepare a hospital diagnosis, counseling records, statements from people around you, etc.

If, in proceeding with a criminal complaint for Instagram malicious comments, the defamation charge by spreading false facts through information and communication networks is recognized against the perpetrator, under Article 70 of the Information and Communications Network Act, imprisonment of up to 7 years, suspension of qualifications of up to 10 years, or a fine of up to 50 million won may be imposed.

However, since filing a criminal complaint for Instagram malicious comments can be complex in legal procedures, it is recommended to respond quickly and accurately with the help of an entertainment attorney.
