[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Jung-yoon] One of the two members of the Seoul National University Progressive Union (Seoul National University Jin-yeon), who were detained on charges of obstructing the election campaign of Oh Se-hoon, the United Future Party candidate, during the April 15 general election campaign period, has been released.


The 11th Criminal Division of the Seoul Eastern District Court (Chief Judge Son Joo-chul) approved the bail requested by Kang Mo (23) on the 23rd, on the condition of paying a deposit of 30 million won. He was also ordered to notify the court in advance when changing residence, attempting to leave the country, or traveling for more than three days.


However, the bail request for Yoo Mo (37), who applied for bail together, was dismissed, stating that "there is no reason to grant it."



They were detained and prosecuted on charges of obstructing the election campaign (violation of the Public Official Election Act) by protesting at the campaign site of candidate Oh, who ran for the Gwangjin District in Seoul during the general election.
