As if Lee Jae-myeong would also investigate directly, observe “Lee’s warrant request before the start of the National Assembly next month”
The prosecution, which is investigating the suspicion of remittance to North Korea by the Ssangbangwool Group, is said to investigate Jeong Jin-sang (pictured), former head of the political coordination office at the party’s representative office, who is closest to Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myeong. Inside and outside the prosecution, there is an analysis that the investigation of Lee and the request for an arrest warrant are imminent.
According to the Dong-A Ilbo on the 30th, the 6th detective division of the Suwon District Prosecutor’s Office (chief prosecutor Kim Young-nam) is expected to call in former chief Jeong as a witness and investigate this week. Currently, the prosecution is coordinating the investigation schedule with former chief Jeong’s side, and it is said that the investigation will be conducted before the 8th of next month, when the trial of Lee Hwa-young, former deputy governor of Gyeonggi-do, will be held.
The prosecution is in a position that a direct investigation of Lee is inevitable as Lee’s closest aides completely deny the allegations. In the investigation conducted until 11:00 pm on the 27th, Kim Yong, former deputy director of the Democratic Research Institute, is said to have repeated his position, “(The actual owner of Ssangbangwool), former chairman Kim Seong-tae, had a meal with several people when many people gathered.” Former Chairman Kim testified at the trial earlier that “Immediately after paying the cost of the smart farm to North Korea, former Vice President Kim said to the effect of thanking him.” It is known that the prosecution will adjust the schedule for Lee’s investigation after the 8th. There are also observations from inside and outside the prosecution that the former prosecution will request an arrest warrant for Lee on the 16th of next month, when the National Assembly session begins.
