Daegu City filed a civil lawsuit of 100 billion won against the Sincheonji Jesus Bridge Evidence Barrier Shrine (hereafter Shincheonji).

Daegu City announced today (the 22nd) that it had filed a complaint with the Daegu District Court regarding the claim for damages and reimbursement to the Daegu District Court. It is known that the first confirmer in Daegu area, known as'Confirmer No. 31', was not included in the lawsuit.

City officials pointed out that Shincheonji did not cooperate with the quarantine authorities and prevented the spread of the strong Corona19. Immediately after it was discovered on February 18 that the first confirmed person in Daegu was a member of the Sincheonji Church, the authorities immediately requested a list of Shinto from the Daegu Church in Sincheonji, where the church handed over the missing list of over 100 names, causing a disruption in the epidemiological investigation.

Daegu City explained that since then, Shincheonji Church has been actively seeking prosecutors and self-containment, but it has not been followed, which has triggered further spread. In fact, as of today, 4,265 of the 6,900 cumulative confirmed patients in Daegu Corona19, about 62% are members of Shincheonji. The amount of damage estimated by Daegu City on its own amounts to approximately 146 billion won.

In addition, Daegu City received a seizure decision from the court on the Shincheonji Daegu Church building and some of Lee's deposits. The property value of Daegu Church building is known to be around 10 billion won. 
A lawyer at the city side said, "There was no attempt to reach an agreement with the church in Sincheonji at the time of filing a complaint." Shincheonji Daegu Church did not say that it was a matter of legal response at the general meeting level in Seoul.
