Former President Lee Myung-bak, who was sentenced yesterday to 17 years in prison on embezzlement and bribery charges, came out for hospital treatment before his reincarceration next week. Let’s connect the reporters and hear the details, reporter Park Ki-wan! Did former President Lee leave for the hospital? Yes. So is. Former president Lee Myung-bak left around 9:20 a while ago. I was unable to get out of the car and listen to the former president’s position on the expected decision of the Supreme Court. Former President Lee is scheduled to receive treatment at Seoul National University Hospital starting this morning. It is known that in the morning he receives treatment in the endocrinology service and in the afternoon in the circulation service. Former President Lee said the hospital was scheduled to receive treatment and asked the prosecution to delay the reincarceration, which was originally expected to take place today, until next Monday the 2nd of the following month. The prosecution also accepted the request, taking into account that former President Lee is older, so a visit to the hospital was made today. Yesterday, the Supreme Court upheld a court trial with 17 years in prison and a 13 billion won fine against the former president, who was charged with bribery under the Aggravated Punishment Act for certain crimes. Accordingly, on the 2nd of the following month, former President Lee will be detained at the East Seoul Detention Center after passing through the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office. Earlier, former President Lee said yesterday that the rule of law had collapsed and he was concerned about the future of the country, noting that the Supreme Court ruling was unfair. As he was leaving today for hospital treatment, former President Lee was expected to directly reveal his position, but it appears he will just go to the hospital quietly without saying anything. So far, the Ministry of Social Affairs has handed it over. Park ki-wan [[email protected]]
