SEOUL, June 26 (UPI) -- South Korea's National Police Agency has announced plans to create an anti-cyber terror unit within the year, the Korea Times reported.
The announcement follows recent government agency network hackings and the spread of images of beheaded Korean translator Kim Sun-il in Iraq.

"The envisioned unit will consist of 110 people and will be headed by a high-ranking police officer," an NPA official said.
A small division of the police agency has so far assumed full responsibility for coping with cyber terror.
