The police has issued an arrest warrant for Hong Ga Hye, the woman who falsely claimed to be a rescue scuba diver and held an interview where she gave out untrue information, as well as posing as Hwayoung's cousin in T-ara's bullying scandal.

The Jeonnam Provincial Police Agency issued the warrant earlier today. The woman in question had spread misinformation in a televised interview, claiming that divers had communicated with people within the ship as well as other false claims.

Once people began questioning her interview, she stated that "she had heard the news from another person" before disappearing.

As the tragedy onboard the Sewol continues to unfold, we can only hope that she is found and brought to justice.
