Prosecutors Decide Not to Indict All 13 Charges Against Former Lawmaker Na Kyung-won
[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jihwan] On the 24th, the prosecution decided not to indict all the accusations related to Na Kyung-won, former member of the United Future Party (currently the People’s Party).
On the same day, the Criminal Division 7 of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office dismissed the accusations related to Na Kyung-won’s daughter and the Pyeongchang Winter Special Olympics (SOK) organizing committee.
The prosecution acquitted Na Kyung-won on charges of altering her daughter’s university grades and on matters related to budget execution by the organizing committee and the non-profit corporation due to insufficient evidence.
Additionally, regarding her daughter’s university admission, the hiring of secretaries for the organizing committee, and the selection of artistic directors for the Special Olympics opening and closing ceremonies, the statute of limitations had already expired, so the prosecution dismissed the cases citing "lack of prosecutorial jurisdiction."
