It was reported that the prosecution investigating the suspicion of preferential treatment in Daejang-dong secured a document containing the circumstances in which Lee Jae-myung, the Democratic Party representative, was 'X-marked' when a report containing unfavorable contents to Daejang-dong operators was posted when he was mayor of Seongnam.

Prosecutors plan to inquire about the details of the report revision when CEO Lee appears next week.



Reporter Han So-hee covered the story exclusively.

This is the report of the Seongnam City Urban Development Project Group, which was finalized in July 2012 by then Seongnam Mayor Lee Jae-myung.



This is a document reviewing which method is appropriate when developing Daejang-dong and the 1st Industrial Complex site park project.



Through the seizure and search, the prosecution secured a 'draft' of the report written about a month earlier.



In the draft, the opinions of working-level workers in Seongnam City are written, and it was confirmed that "the project promotion that mixes the method of expropriating the land with the method of giving other land instead is a method that private businesses do not prefer and there is no application case." .



However, someone 'X'ed this opinion, and in fact, this content was omitted from the final approval document.



Based on the fact that the draft report was all approved before the mayor of Seongnam, the prosecution suspects that it was Representative Lee who ordered the opinion to be removed by putting an 'X mark' on the opinion.



In particular, we are paying attention to the fact that the deleted part is the part that was evaluated as inappropriate for the method that Daejang-dong operators wanted at the time.



Former head Dong-gyu Yoo said at the prosecution, "At the time, I reported to Sang-i Jin (Jin-sang Jeong) that private business operators wanted to develop Daejang-dong using a mixed-use method, and the contents were conveyed to Mayor Jae-myeong Lee, and the mayor gave a negative opinion about the mixed-use method. It seems that I was instructed to delete it."



The prosecution sees this circumstance as one of the evidences for alleged breach of trust related to CEO Lee.



Representative Lee said, "As a result, not only was the business not promoted the way the Daejang-dong party wanted, but the fact that CEO Lee took back the profits from the Daejang-dong business remains unchanged."
