Ryu Si-min, chairman of the Roh Moo-Hyundan, apologized today (22nd) that his claim that the prosecution had looked into the foundation's financial transaction information was not true.

He stepped back, saying that he had distrusted the prosecution because of excessive hostility and that he would not make political criticism in the future.

Chairman Yoo Si-min bowed his head, but there is an atmosphere in which the work will not be finished.



This is Kang Min-woo.



<Reporter> At the



end of December, when the prosecution was investigating the former Minister of Justice Cho Kook, the chairman of the Roh Moo Hyun-dan chairman Yoo Si-min claimed that the prosecution had looked into the foundation account on his YouTube broadcast'Alileo'.



[Ryu Si-min/Roh Moo-Hyun Chairman of the Foundation (December 24, last year): I confirmed that the prosecution had looked into the Roh Moo-Hyun Foundation's account.]



He raised suspicion of the inspector's suspicion, saying that it is highly likely that he and his family's accounts were also viewed.



The prosecution refuted that this was not true, but the rumors amplified as the passports joined the debate.



But a year later, accountant Kim Kyung-ryul, the so-called'Black Book of the Motherland', appeared.



At the time, if it was correct that the investigative agency had read the financial information, it was time for Chairman Yoo to disclose the evidence, as it would have to notify the parties within a year at the latest.



Chairman Yoo, who remained silent, said that he politely apologizes to the prosecution, saying that he raised the suspicion without careful review and sufficient grounds, posting on the foundation's website today.



Acted like a party in a political quarrel, confessed that he had demonized his opponents by excessive hostility.



In addition, he promised not to criticize political issues in the future.



While the prosecution did not come up with an official position, the anti-corruption chief Han Dong-hoon, who was suspected of being a key figure in the suspicion of the temple, said that he would review necessary measures as he had already suffered severe damage from false agitation.
