Police said, "Oh, the mayor's charges are serious and additional cases other than forcing may take a long time." The reason was revealed.

The police also added that "the delay in handling the incident was also concerned about the secondary damage to the victim."

Since the 27th of last month, the police have formed a dedicated team of 24 people and have focused on demonstrating allegations against the former mayor.

Since the first application for a warrant for a forced assault case, the police will continue to conduct reinforcement investigations on the remaining charges, such as coordinating the timing of resignation before the general election.
