Gyeonggi Bundang Police Station, which was in charge of the supplementary investigation of the so-called 'Seongnam FC suspicion' case, decided to transfer the case to the Gyeonggi Nambu Police Agency, a higher institution.
Today (4th), Gyeonggi Nambu Police Agency announced that it had been transferred to the Bundang Police Station at the request of the Bundang Police Station to transfer the suspicion of Seongnam FC sponsorship in the beginning of last week.
Accordingly, the Gyeonggi Bundang Police Station is planning to hand over the case of Seongnam FC sponsorship funds to the Gyeonggi Nambu Police Agency's anti-corruption and economic crime investigation unit within this week.
Gyeonggi Nambu Office’s Anti-Corruption and Economic Crime Investigation Team is investigating most of the allegations related to Rep. Lee Jae-myung of the Democratic Party of Korea, including ‘suspicion of corporate card’, ‘suspicion of Baekhyeon-dong apartment development project’, and ‘suspicion of Gyeonggi Housing and Urban Corporation (GH) dormitory secret camp’. where it is.
The background of the transfer of the case was reflected in the fact that Bundang Police Station, a front-line police station, had a lot of public life cases and election cases, and that it was difficult to concentrate investigation capabilities on a specific case.
Previously, the Bundang Police Department decided to dismiss the case once due to insufficient evidence, but in February the prosecution resumed the investigation at the request of a supplementary investigation. and switched to compulsory investigation.
The police have revealed that the case will be closed at the Bundang Police Station, saying, "It is right to continue the investigation where it was first investigated." There are also observations that the investigation phase is changing as the officers make a personnel change one after another.
