The prosecution's special investigation headquarters, which investigates the emergency martial law incident, called back Jung Sung-woo, the first director of the counterintelligence command, to determine the authenticity of the "suspected prosecution intervention."
The special investigation headquarters of the prosecution's emergency martial law called the head of the department as a reference last evening (14th).
In the investigation, the special investigation asked Chung about the authenticity of the "suspected prosecution intervention" raised by Democratic Party lawmaker Choo Mi-ae.
Choo previously claimed that Yeo In-hyeong, the commander of counterintelligence, told Chung immediately after the martial law was declared, "It will come from the prosecution and the National Intelligence Service."
In response, Chung stated to the effect that Commander Yeo mentioned the National Intelligence Service and investigative agencies, but did not specify the "prosecution."
Commander Yeo is also known to have stated that even if martial law is declared, the prosecution is not under the command of the martial law army, so he did not mention the prosecution.
The Supreme Prosecutors' Office also issued a statement yesterday, saying that the prosecution has not received or dispatched requests from any agency, including counterintelligence agencies, related to martial law.
