Democratic Party Files Additional Complaint with Corruption Investigation Office Against 'Lee Jeong-seop, Head of Lee Jae-myung Investigation Team'

The Democratic Party of Korea has reported Lee Jeong-seop, Deputy Chief Prosecutor of Suwon District Prosecutors' Office 2nd Division, who is in charge of investigating the allegations of North Korean remittances by the Ssangbangwool Group linked to party leader Lee Jae-myung, to the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials (CIO).

On the afternoon of the 10th, Democratic Party lawmakers Kim Yong-min, Kim Eui-gyeom, and Jeon Yong-gi filed a complaint against Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lee with the CIO for violations of the Resident Registration Act, Improper Solicitation and Graft Act, State Public Officials Act, Criminal Act, and the Code of Conduct for Prosecutors.

The Democratic Party had previously reported Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lee to the prosecution on the 18th of last month, and this is an additional complaint filed on this day. Spokesperson Park Seong-jun said after the party's Supreme Council meeting in the morning, "We reported to the Supreme Prosecutors' Office, but no action was taken by the prosecution," adding, "We believe that corrupt or criminal prosecutors should not be tolerated, so we decided to file a complaint."

The Democratic Party claims that Deputy Chief Prosecutor Lee is suspected not only of illegal address registration for his children but also of receiving inappropriate entertainment.
