Democratic Party Rep. Jeong Jeong-soon who refused to respond to the prosecution's eight times request for attendance despite being accused of fraudulent accounting and receiving illegal political funds during the general election.



He appealed for a vote no at a plenary session of the National Assembly to deal with a single motion for his arrest.



[Jeong Jeong-soon/Democratic Party Member: The privilege of non-arrest granted by the Constitution to members of the National Assembly will result in making ourselves



unrecognizable

.] The

day before, I sent a letter to the ruling party lawmakers, saying, "I will go on a path I haven't seen." Was resolute.



While the people's power was unable to fully put the political burden on the Democratic Party, 186 members of the ruling party and the rest of the opposition party took part in the vote, and an arrest motion was passed with 167 votes in favor.



The Democratic Party also came out with some votes, but it did not interfere with the trend.



Congressman Chung said he would accept the results.



[Jung-soon Jeong/Democratic Party Member: (Approval means) I will make sure to schedule it according to the results, and to attend and to be faithful.] The



fact of consent to arrest by the National Assembly is passed on to the Cheongju District Act through the Ministry of Justice and the prosecution.



It said that the Cheongju District Law will review the same data as when handling the motion for arrest, but it will be meticulously reviewed once again.



If the court issues an arrest warrant, the prosecution can arrest and investigate him, but before that, he may be present and investigated voluntarily.



There have been 58 arrests and arrests submitted to the National Assembly so far, and this is the 14th approval process.



Since it is only a quarter, it seems that there is still a long way to go to completely clear the stigma of the BTS and the Uiri National Assembly.
