Additionally, it stated, "Deputy Prosecutor General Cho Nam-gwan directed that the related document and the cases under investigation by Inspection Division 3 be jointly assigned to the Seoul High Prosecutors' Office for investigation." It explained that Deputy Prosecutor General Cho's investigation command was a measure taken because Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol has refrained from all commands regarding the case due to a conflict of interest.
