The prosecution's non-prosecution of Kim Gun-hee's alleged involvement in the stock price manipulation is causing a serious political backlash.

Today, a parliamentary audit of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, which was the investigative agency, was held, and there was a scuffle between the ruling and opposition parties over the prosecution's request for a search warrant.

I'm connecting you with a reporter from the National Assembly. Reporter Lim Sungjae!

The Central District Prosecutors' Office's audit was held a day after the prosecution concluded that it was not prosecuted, so please tell us the atmosphere of the site.

Yes, in the parliamentary audit of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, there were loud voices between ruling and opposition lawmakers from the beginning.

The Democratic Party of Korea asked Lee Chang-soo, the head of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, if the prosecution did not request a search warrant for Kim in connection with the alleged stock price manipulation.

Chung Chung-rae, chairman of the Democratic Party, and others said, "Why did the prosecution's investigation team announce that the warrant that had not even been requested was rejected, which is a lie."

Lee explained that the prosecution's request for a warrant was related to Kim's alleged sponsorship of preferential treatment, but said he was not lying because an investigation team investigated both cases at the same time.Let's listen to



[Jeong Chung-rae / Chairman of the National Assembly Legislation and Judiciary Committee, Minjoo Party of Korea: Why did you announce that you requested a search warrant that you didn't even request and was rejected?]

[Lee Chang-soo / Chief of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office] I don't think it's a lie, and I was briefed after the fact.]

In this regard, a war of nerves between the ruling and opposition parties broke out, and the parliamentary audit was adjourned for a while within an hour of the opening.

The power of the people, however, focused on the fact that the prosecution, which has conducted related investigations for four and a half years, would have produced its own results based on evidence and legal principles.

In addition, he stressed that the stock price manipulation case brought up an internal investigation case that ended long ago after the prosecutor general of Yoon Suk Yeol conducted an investigation targeting the regime during the Moon Jae In administration.Let's listen to



[Park Jun-tae / People's Power: For two years, forced investigation, 50 raids, and 150 people were summoned to investigate to get Kim Gun-hee together. That's why some say that this is the epitome and representative case of political retaliation and investigation.]

The confrontation between the ruling and opposition parties is also sharp, but factional conflict is intensifying within the ruling party over the Kim controversy, right?

President Yoon Suk Yeol and Representative Han Dong-hoon are scheduled to meet early next week.As representatives

have publicly presented the 'three major demands' such as the suspension of Kim's external activities, personnel reform, and clarification of suspicions, this issue is expected to become the biggest topic in the meeting between the two.

First of all, representative Han Dong-hoon criticized the third Kim Special Prosecutor Act, which was proposed by the Democratic Party again, as not possible and realistic.Let's listen to



[Han Dong-hoon / Representative of People's Power: What the Democratic Party of Korea is doing is not actually intended to do anything, but it is repeating things that are more unlikely and unrealistic, knowing that it will be rejected.]

However, there is a sense of crisis that there is less and less justification to block the independent counsel law within the close-knit community.

An official told YTN on the phone, "If we don't find a solution in this meeting, we will be on the defensive."

Another official also stressed that the issue of Kim, who has been dragged around for two and a half years, should be settled, saying that Han's public opinion is a sign of urgency.

On the other hand, in the pro-Yoon Seok-yeol community, there is a sharp response to whether the president should surrender publicly.

One person told YTN that Han's method was not the right attitude as the person who requested the interview, and in the end, Han himself suspected that he intended to emphasize that he had done his job.

The important thing is to persuade the president, but Han doesn't seem to have the confidence or ability to persuade him.

The Democratic Party of Korea, which proposed the third Special Prosecutor's Law for Mrs. Kim, seems to be raising the level of its offensive, right?

[Reporter]
Lee Jae-myung, the leader of the Democratic Party, repeatedly criticized the prosecution's non-prosecution of Kim at a morning meeting.

In a word, Lee expressed that yesterday was the day when the rule of law of the Republic of Korea declared his death.Let's listen to



[Lee Jae-myung / Democratic Party leader: Yesterday was the day of the death of the rule of law in Korea. I hired a security guard to protect the thief, and this guard became a thief and robbed the store.]

He also left a bone-in saying that the people are watching and that they should keep in mind that they will act when the time comes.

Senior spokesman Cho Seung-rae told reporters that there are currently rallies across the country criticizing President Yoon Suk Yeol, and he thinks it will be bigger.

In particular, he stressed that he could not sit idly by the situation in which the prosecution was even told that it was not a just public power for the people but a prosecution to protect Mrs. Kim.
