The Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors' Office plans to respond swiftly and strictly to election-related crimes such as election-related violence motivated by political reasons including winning, losing, or hatred toward opposing camps, dissemination of false information and black propaganda, election-related bribery, and election interference by public officials or organizations.


The Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors' Office has formed a dedicated election investigation team and entered a special duty system in stages, maintaining an emergency duty system until the statute of limitations expires on October 10 of this year.



The Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors' Office stated, “The election commission and police will actively communicate and cooperate to investigate according to laws and principles regardless of identity, position, or election outcome, and will do their best to establish a fair election culture by ensuring that appropriate sentences are imposed for illegal acts.”
