Kim Hye-kyung, the wife of the Democratic Party president Jae-myung Lee, who is being investigated for alleged misappropriation of corporate cards, was investigated by the prosecution yesterday (7th) following a police investigation a while ago.
A decision on whether to prosecute Lee, who is accused of violating election laws, is likely to be decided today.

Two days before the statute of limitations on the Public Official Election Act, Kim Hye-kyung appeared at the prosecution and was questioned.
It has been a week since the police turned over the case on charges of using corporate cards together with Gyeonggi-do civil servant Bae Mo.
Kim's side denied the charges, but the police saw him as an accomplice and handed it over to the prosecution with an opinion of indictment.
Prosecutors also summoned public interest reporter A as a witness on the 3rd and the day before, and it is said that they intensively investigated the relationship between Kim Hye-kyung and Bae.
The conclusion of Lee Jae-myung's violation of the election law is also expected to come out as early as today.
He is accused of publicizing false facts that he made different remarks from the facts related to the suspicion of preferential treatment in Baekhyun-dong and Daejang-dong during the presidential election and said that he did not know Kim Moon-ki, the late Seongnam Urban Development Corporation's first development director.
In particular, there is an interpretation that the prosecution showed a willingness to indict on some charges regarding the seizure and search of the Gyeonggi Provincial Office just before the statute of limitations.
It is known that the person in charge of public affairs, who has been in charge of public affairs since the time of Seongnam Mayor, has secured a computer and is analyzing it, but it is read with the intention of checking whether there is a prior coordination at the time of the remark.

Even after the statute of limitations on the election law, it seems that a nerve war between CEO Lee and the prosecution will continue over the investigation into the development of Daejang-dong.
