[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] As the number of signatures on the national petition demanding the disclosure of personal information and the establishment of a photo line for the suspects of the 'Telegram Nth Room' case surpassed 2 million, the United Future Party criticized that it has become difficult to set up a photo line for the Nth Room suspects due to former Minister of Justice Cho Kuk.


Jung Won-seok, the full-time spokesperson of the United Future Party's election committee, stated in a commentary on the 23rd, "The beneficiaries of the abolition of the photo line are Cho Kuk and his family, who used justice as a pretext, along with the remaining hypocrites," asserting this claim.


The Nth Room case involves the creation and distribution of sexually exploitative videos of numerous women, including minors, in secret Telegram chat rooms. The number of petition signatures demanding the disclosure of their identities and the establishment of a photo line has exceeded 2 million.


Spokesperson Jung said, "Due to former Minister Cho Kuk, the primary beneficiary of the ban on photo line disclosure who abused justice to conceal his hypocrisy through the Human Rights Protection Investigation Rules, it will become even more difficult to disclose the identities of the Nth Room suspects and set up a photo line." He added, "This elastic theory of justice, which destroyed the rule of law under the pretext of human rights, has given the greatest gift to the criminals at a time when the public demands the right to know and the realization of the rule of law."



He continued, "The United Future Party strongly condemns the Nth Room case and demands severe punishment for the operators 'Doctor' and 'GodGod,' who violated the human rights of the victims," and urged, "Minister Chu Mi-ae and the Ministry of Justice authorities to thoroughly reconsider the ban on photo line disclosure, which is nothing less than a 'Cho Kuk-originated Nth Room gift.'"
