[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] An arrest warrant has been requested for Kang Jin-gu, the CEO of the YouTube media outlet 'Simineonron The Tam-sa,' who is accused of trespassing into the residence of Justice Minister Han Dong-hoon.


On the 27th, according to the police and prosecution, the Anti-Corruption and Public Crime Investigation Unit of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency applied for an arrest warrant for Kang on charges including trespassing into a shared residence. The Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office filed the arrest warrant request with the court on the same day.


Last month on the 27th, Kang, along with employees of The Tam-sa, visited the apartment in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, where Minister Han resides, entered through the shared entrance up to the front door of the residence, and was subsequently reported by Minister Han on charges of trespassing.



The police conducted a search and seizure of The Tam-sa office and Kang's residence in Namyangju, Gyeonggi Province, on the 7th, and again searched Kang's residence on the 23rd. On the previous day, the residences of three employees of The Tam-sa were also searched to secure investigation materials.
