Gwangju Police Launch Investigation into Three Local TCS International Schools Related to IM Mission Society

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] The Gwangju police have recently launched an investigation into facilities related to the IM Mission Society, where a COVID-19 cluster infection occurred.

The Gwangju Metropolitan Police Agency announced on the 10th that it has begun investigating three unauthorized educational facilities related to the IM Mission Society in the region (Gwangju TCS International School, Ace TCS International School, and Tikun TCS International School) for violations of COVID-19 quarantine regulations.

The investigation is being handled by the Anti-Corruption and Economic Crime Investigation Unit of the Gwangju Police Agency.

After a complaint was filed by a civic group in the Gwangju area on the 28th of last month, it was decided earlier this month, following discussions on whether the investigation should be conducted by local police stations or the Gwangju Police Agency, to proceed as such.

However, since most of the facility-related individuals under investigation are infected with COVID-19 and are undergoing isolation treatment, it is expected that the full investigation will take considerable time until they recover and are discharged.

Until the full investigation begins, the Anti-Corruption and Economic Crime Investigation Unit plans to collect and analyze data from the Gwangju Metropolitan City and the Gwangju Metropolitan Office of Education.

Meanwhile, in the Gwangju area, 133 people related to Gwangju TCS International School and 50 people related to Ace TCS International School have been confirmed positive for COVID-19 to date.
