On the 14th, the hearing of former President Park Geun-hye will be held, prosecuted for receiving expenses for special activities from the National Intelligence Service and the National Intelligence Service.

Previously, he was sentenced to 20 years in prison at the remand court trial, but the sentence is expected to be finalized unless there is any change.

Reporter Lim Seong-ho reports.

After being charged and prosecuted under arrest in March 2017 for the Gukjeong Nongdan incident, former President Park Geun-hye has been on trial for three years and nine months.

The charges against former President Park were 21 types, including the abuse of authority involving Mr. Seo-won Choi, who was in the “ disadvantageous situation ”, the bribery of Samsung and Lotte, the charges of reimbursement for expenses of special activities of the head of the National Intelligence Service and accusations of intervening in the nominations for the general elections.

Most of them were convicted and sentenced to a fine of 20 billion won and an additional premium of 2.7 billion won for 30 years in prison at the second trial after the first trial.

However, the Supreme Court, which received an appeal from the prosecution, tore this up and sent the case back to the Seoul High Court.

In Gukjeong Nongdan’s case, the sentence for bribery and other charges was decided because it violated the Public Officials Election Law, which classified the crimes of bribery of public officials.

Consequently, in July of last year, the Court of Destruction and Reimbursement sentenced former President Park to a 15-year prison term and a fine of 18 billion won for bribery, and an additional 3.5 billion won in prison for the remaining charges of abuse of office.

Since the core issues were determined on the previous appeal, there is a high possibility that 20 years in prison will end in the sentence for reappearance.

Former President Park was previously sentenced to two years in prison for a nomination intervention case and is incarcerated in a Seoul detention center as a deadline.

In this situation, the fact that the representative of the Democratic Party, Lee Nak-yeon, spoke of the ‘special pardon for former presidents Lee Myung-bak and Park Geun-hye’ is causing a stir.

The special pardon, which is the authority of the president, is aimed at those who have been sentenced to a sentence, but former President Lee Myung-bak, who was sentenced to 17 years in prison last year in the Supreme Court, is eligible. for a special pardon.

Furthermore, if former President Park Geun-hye is also sentenced to 20 years in prison in the Supreme Court on the 14th, in theory, a special pardon will be possible.
