Pastor Kwang-Hoon Jeon of Sarangjeil Church, who led a large-scale assembly on Liberation Day, is reincarnated due to the court's decision to cancel bail.
According to the legal community, Section 34 of the Criminal Agreement of the Seoul Central District Court (Deputy Judge Heo Sun-ah) accepted the prosecution's request today (7th) and decided to cancel bail for the former pastor.
It has been 140 days since the former pastor was released on bail on April 20th.
The prosecution plans to execute a job site this morning and put the former pastor back in jail.
Pastor Jeon was prosecuted in March this year for pre-election campaigns (violation of the Public Official Election Act) and defamation of President Moon Jae-in ahead of the 21st general election.
The former pastor arrested during the investigation was released on bail during trial.
However, on the 16th of last month, the prosecution filed for cancellation of bail because the former pastor violated bail conditions such as attending the Gwanghwamun assembly.
However, when the former pastor was confirmed for Corona 19 on the 17th of last month, the decision on whether to cancel bail was postponed.
He was treated and discharged on the 2nd of this month.
