Yang Bu-nam: "Sudden Opposition Party Raid Is Just a Political Show by the Prosecution"

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Jamin] Yang Bunam, Chairman of the Legal Committee of the Democratic Party of Korea, raised his voice on the 24th, calling the prosecution's execution of a search warrant on the Democratic Party headquarters a "sudden opposition party invasion."

On the 25th, Chairman Yang issued a press release stating, "In the search conducted after two days of commotion, the prosecution took four document files unrelated to any crime. Ultimately, it was a political show by the prosecution."

He continued, "Why does the prosecution insist on such an abnormal investigation behavior? Is it because a normal investigation cannot reveal the truth of Daejang-dong as they want?" and asked, "Or is there some other pressure that makes it inevitable?"

Regarding the People Power Party's rejection of the Daejang-dong special prosecutor proposal, calling it a stalling tactic, he said, "Their rejection of the special prosecutor was predictable. Considering the biased and politically retaliatory investigation by the political prosecution, there is no reason for the Yoon Seok-yeol administration and the People Power Party to give up such a good tool themselves," adding, "Since the regime change, they have used the prosecution as they wished, and they intend to continue doing so. The stalling has been done by the prosecution and will continue until the statute of limitations expires."

About the Daejang-dong special prosecutor, he said, "If President Yoon Seok-yeol and the People Power Party truly want to reveal the clear truth of the Daejang-dong case, they should accept the special prosecutor immediately without any conditions," and questioned, "If they want to uncover the truth of Daejang-dong by searching the opposition party headquarters despite being called a political show, why would they refuse the proposal to reveal the truth through a special prosecutor?"

He added, "As Representative Lee Jae-myung said, let the special prosecutor handle the political conflict elements, and the National Assembly should focus on people's livelihoods."
