<Reporter> The

prosecution's investigation, which began with the suspicion of Grandmother Yong-soo Lee and subsequent accusations, was settled with the prosecution of Rep. Yoon Mi-hyang after four months.

The prosecution believes that about 100 million won of the money that Rep. Yoon raised for her grandmothers has been spent more than 100 times for personal use since 2011.

It means that the expenses for the grandmother's travel, condolence money, and public money managed by Jeong Dae-hyup, which were received from five personal accounts, were useful, but we did not disclose where they were specifically spent.

The prosecution also conspired with Mr. A, head of the Mapo Shelter, where Rep. Yoon died, and made it illegal to donate 50 million won out of 100 million won for the women's rights awards for Grandmother Gil Won-ok, who was suffering from severe dementia. They reported that they received donations and applied the charges of quasi-fraud.

The controversial Anseong Shelter was judged to have suffered damage to the Jeongdaehyeop by buying it for 750 million won, which is more expensive than the market price, and the suspicion of unfairly receiving a subsidy of 300 million won from the government and Seoul while operating the War and Women's Human Rights Museum was also applied. Done.

However, there were no charges, such as suspicion that her husband had driven her work to a newspaper company run by her husband, and that she spent money for her daughter study abroad or for real estate purchases.

Rep. Yoon expressed deep regret for the prosecution's investigation and insisted that all the money raised was spent publicly.

In addition, through the Facebook page in the name of Congressman Mi-hyang Yoon, he announced that he would not exercise his party membership by saying, "Until the allegations overlaid by the prosecution are clarified."
