[Asia Economy Reporter Jeong Dong-hoon] The Anti-Corruption and Public Crime Investigation Unit of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency, which is investigating the accusation case against Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon, summoned Ahn Jin-geol, director of the Minsheng Economy Research Institute, for the second time on the afternoon of the 24th as a complainant.

Before the investigation that day, Director Ahn urged a thorough police investigation, saying, "Mayor Oh lied about the 'self-compensation' in Naegok-dong during the Seoul mayoral election period and committed the atrocity of filing a complaint against media outlets that reported eyewitness accounts of the land surveying site for spreading false information."

Organizations including the Minsheng Economy Research Institute raised suspicions such as ▲ lies related to Naegok-dong land, participation in far-right rallies, and corruption in Pie City ▲ false accusations against media outlets reporting on witnesses in Naegok-dong ▲ unauthorized leakage of personal information from an ecological soup restaurant near Naegok-dong, demanding punishment for Mayor Oh and officials from the mayoral candidate’s campaign.

Director Ahn stated, "Farmers who witnessed the land surveying site in Naegok-dong and restaurant staff nearby have already been interviewed by the police as witnesses, providing their testimonies and expressing their intention to seek punishment," adding, "The bereaved families of the Yongsan tragedy, whose honor was defamed by Mayor Oh, also told me they want punishment."
