A motion to arrest Democratic Party Representative Jeong Jeong-soon, who is accused of violating the Public Officials Election Law, is voted on today in the National Assembly (29). The party leadership has already recommended on several occasions responding to the investigation, but it has not been accepted, and there are criticisms such as the ‘Anti-Bullet National Assembly’ and ‘Cover my family’, which weigh on the possibility of approving an arrest motion . Reporter Kim Dae-geun reports. A motion to arrest Democratic Party lawmaker Jeong Jeong-soon, who was accused of violating the Public Officials Election Law and the Political Fund Law, was reported to the plenary session of the National Assembly. According to the law of the National Assembly, an arrest motion reported to the plenary must be voted on within 72 hours after 24 hours. Consequently, the ruling and opposition parties decided to hold a plenary session on the afternoon of the 29th and deal with the motion to arrest Chung. Previously, prosecutors asked Chung to attend eight times, but when he refused to comply, he presented an arrest warrant. However, Representative Chung has adhered to the position that attendance is difficult due to the schedule of the National Assembly. Meanwhile, the Democratic Party leadership has repeatedly lobbied many times to request and refer to the ethics inspection team if it repeatedly requests and refuses to attend. However, after conveying to the party leadership his position that it was unfair, he turned against the motion to arrest all members of the parliamentary and opposition parties. Congressman Chung claimed that he had requested a postponement due to his son’s wedding and the National Assembly calendar, but that he did not hide behind the privilege of arrest. However, he criticized the prosecution saying that he was stigmatizing himself as a terrible politician, pretending to reject an investigation without good cause. But public opinion is not friendly. A key Democratic Party official explained that the situation is shameful to vote on the same party’s motion to arrest members of the same party. Pressure from other opposition parties is also high. If the arrest motion is rejected, the criticism that the ruling Democratic Party, which is the ruling party and not the opposition party, is going to end my family will be a heavy burden. As such, the possibility of a motion to arrest active legislators in five years after the XIX National Assembly is weighed. YTN Kim Dae-geun[[email protected]]is.
