<Anchor> The



prosecution called for a former Financial Supervisory Service executive who was accused of receiving money and other goods from Optimus and investigated it.

The prosecution is confirming whether the financial supervisory official was lobbying for money to resolve the issue of Optimus-related companies whose stock trading was suspended.



For more details, reporter Bae Jun-woo will deliver.



<Reporter> The



person who was summoned and investigated by the prosecution as a suspect yesterday (27th) was Mr. A, a former executive at the Financial Supervisory Service.



Mr. A is suspected of receiving 20 million won from Optimus lobbyists, but the prosecution is known to have secured a statement that President Kim Jae-hyun ordered this.



The prosecution is suspicious of whether CEO Kim tried to influence the Financial Supervisory Service through Mr. A and resolve the issue of stopping stock trading at Optimus-related companies.



He resumed stock trading and tried to make a profit by selling the company after raising the stock price.



The company is known as'Haeduck Powerway', which is known to have acquired and merged with Optimus through a non-capital M&A method.



This company, a ship parts company, has assets of more than 100 billion won and its flagship product, the directional keys for ships, ranked first in the world market.However, in November 2018, it was designated as an unfaithful public corporation and stock trading was suspended.



In this regard, attorney Moo Yoon, an in-house director at Optimus, told the prosecution that “in February of this year, CEO Kim Jae-hyun was trying to lobby Haeduck Powerway to resume stock trading through lobbyist Shin Mo.”



Attorney Yoon also stated, "CEO Kim said that Shin worked through a person who knew the internal situation of the exchange, and he paid 1 billion won to a large law firm."



The prosecution plans to investigate if Mr. A had a money lobby, whether it was to resume stock trading on Haeduck Powerway, and what role the FSS played in this process.
