Prosecutors began to freeze the hidden assets of former Seongnam Urban Development Corporation head Dong-gyu Dong, who was arrested on suspicion of preferential treatment in Daejang-dong.
Prosecutors have recently requested an order to preserve additional charges before prosecution against an officetel in Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do, which is suspected to have been signed under a borrowed name by former general manager Yoo.
Prosecutors believe that former head of the department borrowed the name of an acquaintance to sign the contract, and it is said that he took such measures to recover the proceeds of crime.
Former General Manager Yoo is accused of bribery of 800 million won and of inflicting hundreds of billions of won in damage to Seongnam City as a result of not including a clause on the return of excess profits in the shareholder agreement.
