South Korea is set to carry out the chemical castration of a serial rapist later this week, CNN reported.

The drug treatment is intended to suppress sexual impulses and does not require the convict's consent.

The sex offender, surnamed Park, has been convicted on four counts of rape or attempted rape on young girls since the 1980s.

"Sex offenders over the age of 19, who have sexually offended against children under the age of 16 and are diagnosed with pedophilia, can be subject to such treatment," a Justice Ministry official said Wednesday. （點(diǎn)擊美國有線電視新聞網(wǎng)查看原文）
