Independent lawmaker Kim Hong-geol, who had been investigated for reporting a reduction of his property, was prosecuted last night without custody.
It is known that Kim was charged with omission of a 1 billion won shopping district in the name of his wife, a shopping center in the name of his wife, and the deposit for renting an apartment in the property disclosure before the general election in April.
Rep. Kim, who was expelled from the Dong-A Democratic Party after suspicion of property omission was raised, was investigated by attending the prosecution as a suspect on the 10th.
Independent lawmaker Yang Jeong-suk, who is accused of missing part of his property while running as a proportional representative of the Democratic Party's satellite party, was also prosecuted last night for violating the election law.
However, the prosecution dismissed charges of business obstruction in addition to the alleged violation of the election law, and the alleged violation of the real-name real-name law was dismissed without the right to prosecute after the statute of limitations expired.
Independent lawmaker Lee Sang-jik, the founder of Eastar Jet, was also indicted without custody for delivering traditional wines and brochures to constituencies from January to September last year, when he was the chairman of the Small and Medium Venture Business Corporation.
The prosecutors will collect the results of the election law violation cases conducted by local prosecutors' offices nationwide and announce them soon.
