<Anchor> The
police investigating allegations of LH speculation applied for an arrest warrant for the LH employee for the first time in a month after the investigation began.
The police believe that there are more than 30 people involved in the new city development task at the Gwangmyeong Siheung headquarters.
This is reporter Choi Sun-gil.
<Reporter> The
suspect who applied for an arrest warrant by the police was Jeong Mo, an employee of LH's Jeonbuk Headquarters.
Jung was in charge of new town development at LH's Gwangmyeong Siheung headquarters in 2017, and it was investigated that he bought 22 lots of Noonsa-dong, Gwangmyeong City, along with other people from March 2017.
This was ahead of Mr. Kang Mo, a former senior LH executive who has been known as a key figure in alleged speculation.
Jeong was not included in the first fifteen people, but it is known that the police caught the situation of speculation in the process of investigating all land transactions related to the Jeollabuk-do area.
In addition, 36 suspicious persons directly or indirectly related to Mr. Jung's alleged speculation are identified.
The police judged that speculation was spreading by being divided into 4 groups, such as relatives, acquaintances, and LH-related people based on the information passed through Mr. Chung.
Therefore, we plan to expand the scope of the investigation while conducting an investigation on Jeong, a key figure in the alleged speculation by the police.
Hi, but Jung is known to have completely denied the allegations.
Along with this, the Seoul Police Agency conducted an investigation today (5th) on the accuser of the former Blue House Policy Officer Kim Sang-jo, who resigned due to the controversy over an increase in jeonse prices.
The police said they would determine the direction of the case by checking the facts, such as whether or not the inside information was used.
