(Nationwide)Two-day investigation of former lawmaker Kim Young-sun

(Nationwide)Two-day investigation of former lawmaker Kim Young-sun

(Anchor) Kim Young-sun is a former People’s Power MP and an important figure in politics.
The investigation continues today, following yesterday (3rd) on suspicion of interference with the candidacy.

Prior to the identification investigation of the first suspect, he denied the suspicion of gratuitous nomination.

I will connect you with a reporter for more information.

Reporter Lim Hyung-joon, did former MP Kim attend the prosecution hearing?

(Correspondent)

Yes, former congressman Kim just joined the Changwon District Prosecutor’s Office.

Today’s investigation is the second since former MP Kim was turned into a suspect.

I researched for about 10 hours yesterday.

Former lawmaker Kim is accused of giving over 90 million won to Myung Tae-kyun dozens of times after he was elected in Changwon’s Uichang district in the 2022 by-election.

The prosecution suspects that former lawmaker Kim gave money to Myung in exchange for the nomination.

Therefore, he was referenced last June, but this time he is being investigated as a suspect.

However, former MP Kim denied the allegations, so let’s hear it out.

Kang Hye-kyung, who was previously in charge of accounting, claimed in the parliamentary audit that Myung was nominated by former MP Kim in exchange for “illegal polls” against Yoon Suk Yeol during the last presidential election.

As a result, Myung was nominated by the president and his wife to former MP Kim and in turn handed over the money, which Kim denied.

The prosecution is expected to soon summon Myung, a key party to the allegation, for investigation.

As the prosecution’s investigation approached, Myung reportedly appointed a lawyer.

So far, I am YTN Lim Hyung-joon in the Changwon District Prosecutor’s Office.
