On the 30th, the police investigating the damage to the tomb of Lee Jae-myung, the head of the Minjoo Party of Korea, announced that all the letters written on the stone found in the burial mound were confirmed to be ‘Life Energy’.
According to the Gyeongbuk Police Agency, which is investigating the case, the damage to the tomb of Lee’s parents was confirmed in three places: the left, right, and back sides of the bottom of the mound.
The hole in the front of the burial mound was identified as a place where the family placed a cross for worship.
Two stones with letters were found in the hole on the right and back of the tomb, but no stone was found in the hole on the left.
As a result of the analysis by the National Institute of Scientific Investigation, the letters written on the two stones were all confirmed as ‘Life’.
The police said, “As a result of asking several scholars and other people about the meaning of the letter, there were many opinions that it did not have a negative meaning.”
Meanwhile, the police are analyzing CCTV data near the site in relation to the investigation of this case and continuing to investigate residents and visitors.
In addition, we are conducting an investigation from various angles, focusing on securing clues through component analysis of on-site artifacts such as stones.
A police official said, “We cannot disclose further details as the investigation is ongoing.”
