Former Channel A reporter Lee Dong-jae and Prosecutor Han Dong-hoon were found to have communicated with each other over 300 times from the end of January to the end of March.

However, it turns out that no key evidence of conspiracy between the two was confirmed.

According to the indictment against former reporter Lee and reporter Baek Mo, the prosecution threatened former Value Invest Korea representative Lee Chul, on the premise that the two are closely connected with one prosecutor and could influence the prosecution's investigation. It stated that it was attempting to obtain information on corruption such as.

He stated that the fact of the coverage was captured by MBC and that threatening the former representative was only attempted.

In the process, the prosecution indicated that the former reporter and the prosecutor had communicated 327 times, including 15 phone calls, 3 voice stocks, and KakaoTalk text messages from January 26 to March 22.

However, the prosecution could not confirm the details of the call between the two.

The prosecution also pointed out that the former reporter met Ji Mo, the representative of Lee's former representative, mentioning a prosecutor, playing the recorded file and showing the transcript.

In addition, the prosecution said that when the former reporter was on the verge of losing the coverage, he made a voice-talk call with the prosecutor Han for 10 minutes and 41 seconds on March 10, and then called the junior reporter Baek Mo and said, I stated that I told you that I said.

However, it is analyzed that this passage is also difficult to see as evidence of the collusion between the former reporter and a prosecutor.

The former reporter's lawyer said, "It's not that I didn't contact you" about the call history with a prosecutor. "It's a natural phenomenon that occurs in the process of interviewing while asking various questions, so it is meaningless as evidence."
