Criticism of the investigation against former President Moon Jae-in by the prosecution,
Jo Guk, leader of the Jo Guk Innovation Party, entering the Jeonju District Prosecutor’s Office on the morning of the 31st as a witness for questioning by the prosecution. Yonhap News,
, ‘As the prosecution investigating the ‘Ta Yi’s Star Jet employment favoritism suspicion’ involving Mr. Seo, who is the son-in-law of former President Moon Jae-in, designated former President Moon as a suspect, Jo Guk, leader of the Jo Guk Innovation Party, criticized that “it is an indication that a second ‘Nondureong Clock’ attack on President Moon Jae-in and his family will begin.”‘,
,
, ‘On the 2nd, Jo stated on Facebook, “The logic of the prosecution’s investigation into President Moon Jae-in is as follows: (i) President Moon shouldered the living expenses of his daughter and son-in-law, and after his son-in-law’s employment at Ta Yi’s, the burden of living expenses disappeared, (ii) Therefore, President Moon benefited from the salary his son-in-law received, so it is considered as ‘bribery’.” He also said, ‘Selective and excessive criminalization’ has begun again.”‘,
,
, ‘Jo stated, “It is a familiar logic of painful irony to me,” and said, “In other words, (i) Deputy Prime Minister Jo shouldered his daughter’s living expenses, and according to the decision of the professor of the University of Busan, his daughter received a scholarship (not a merit-based scholarship, but a total of 6 million won for 3 semesters), (ii) Therefore, Jo benefited from the 6 million won, so it is considered as ‘bribery’. The ‘bribery charge’ resulted in acquittal in the first and second trials.”‘,
,
, ‘He went on to say, “However, the first and second trials acknowledged guilt under the Anti-Corruption Act,” and said, “Nevertheless, the Anti-Corruption Commission and the prosecution, in the ‘Kim Geon-hee Dior Bag Receipt Case’, one after another, settled the case without charges, stating that there are elements of the offense but no penalty provisions. Just a ‘gesture of gratitude’? Ugh!”‘,
