The Criminal Investigation Office of high-ranking government officials investigating the emergency martial law situation will extend the arrest deadline for Moon Sang-ho, commander of the Armed Forces Intelligence Command, and hand over the case to the military prosecution.
The Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit will extend the arrest deadline for Commander Moon, which was until the day after tomorrow (27th), to the 6th of next month and transfer the case to the military prosecution as early as today.Commander
is suspected of plotting emergency martial law with former intelligence commander Roh Sang-won in advance, and being involved in putting agents into the Central Election Commission or mobilizing the North Korean task force as a political arrest team during the emergency martial law.
Earlier, the prosecution and the Airborne Division discussed handing the case over to the prosecution before the 10th day, when the Airborne Division had to apply for an extension to the court, setting the arrest period for suspects in martial law at a maximum of 20 days.
However, in the case of Commander Moon, the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit explained that he consulted with the prosecution and the military prosecution to hand him over directly to the military prosecution without going through the prosecution because he had only 10 days left to arrest him.
