The Seoul Central District Court issued a warrant of arrest for Pastor Kwang-Hoon last night around 10:50.

On the news of the warrant, the supporters in front of the Jongno Police Station, where the pastor was waiting, reacted violently.

Kim Dong-hyun, deputy chief justice, says the pastor's crimes are allegedly guilty of continuing pre-election campaigns against a large audience ahead of the general election.

He also explained the reason for the warrant, saying the issue is serious and serious punishment is expected.

The pastor denied the charges, saying he only made political comments during the warrant, but the court did not accept them.

Earlier, the pastor was charged with a warrant for leading an illegal violent rally last month, but the court rejected the need for arrest.

Pastor Pastor has also been accused by Seoul City for accusing him of holding an over-the-counter rally during the corona 19 outbreak last weekend.

The pastor, however, says he will hold a verse 3 or 1 assembly before he is arrested, and the oversight of supporters is expected to continue.
