Lee Rae-jin, the elder brother of a civil servant Lee Mo, who died after being hit by North Korean forces in the sea on the north side of Yeonpyeong Island in the west sea, insisted, "The coast guard should immediately get out of the investigation."
Mr. Lee pointed out that today (23rd), one day after the announcement of the results of the interim investigation of the maritime police, he issued a refutation statement and said that the maritime police made a false investigation.
He also criticized that "an irresponsible and unscrupulous investigation that tries to mislead public opinion with personal personal attacks, excluding important testimony and ship situation, is an act of blasphemy and double murder."
Mr. Lee said, "Rather than an incompetent maritime police investigating, we should turn to the prosecution and investigate," he said, and that the maritime police should immediately withdraw from the investigation.
Earlier, the Haekyung said at a press conference yesterday that "the dead public official Lee was deeply immersed in Internet gambling until recently," and "It is judged that he fled North Korea for the purpose of escape from a mental panic."
