Lawyer Jinwoo Joo: In the third letter that arrived on February 24 of this year, the witness (former VIK representative Lee Chul) mentioned the name of Amugae Im, a former VIK employee who had an uneasy relationship with the witness, and Lee Dong-jae received detailed information from the prosecutor’s office. Did you say you thought it was the same?
Cheol Lee, CEO: Yes.
Jinwoo Joo: Looking at the letter, reporter Lee Dong-jae met many people related to VIK, and I especially heard the name of Mr. Lim. So, didn’t you hear Lim’s story from another VIK-related reporter? Not what you heard from the prosecution officers
Lee Chul: There is no reason for a prosecution official to be excluded from the reporter.
Lee Cheol (55), former representative of Value Invest Korea (VIK), who attended the trial as a witness in the trial of Lee Dong-jae (35), former Channel A reporter, and Baek Seung-woo (30), who suspect professed adversity. The court stated that it was convinced that it was receiving information from prosecutors after seeing the third letter of the letter. Attorney Joo, the former reporter’s litigation agent, said that the former reporter had obtained information from reporters such as VIK officials in his letter, but asked why he assumed the reporter was a prosecutor.
From 10 a.m. on the 6th, Judge Park Jin-hwan, Deputy Judge of the Seoul Central District Court, held a third trial between former reporter Lee and Channel A reporter Baek Seung-woo, who were charged. To be forced to judge.
Previously, the prosecution manipulated Shillazen’s share price, saying that former reporter Lee sent a letter to the former CEO five times from February to March, and that the former representative’s family could be investigated again or the former representative could revoke all charges and raise the sentence. He reported that he threatened to reveal the corruption of passport personnel such as Roh Si-min, chairman of the Roh Moo Hyun-dan in the case, and was charged with attempted coercion. In September of last year, former CEO Lee was sentenced to 12 years in prison in the Supreme Court on charges of investment fraud of 700 billion won, and in February of last year, he was sentenced to two years and six months of imprisonment in the first trial of an additional prosecution for violations of the Capital Markets Law.
On the morning of that day, the Prosecutor’s Office questioned the former representative, who had served as a witness. In the morning newspaper of prosecution witnesses, Lee stated: “The first letter sent by this former reporter was simply absurd, but as the letter continued to arrive, I became increasingly scared.” As the content of the letter became more detailed, he also revealed that he felt the former reporter had a close relationship with prosecution officials. In the afternoon, the demands of former reporter Lee and reporter Paik questioned Lee as a witness.
“Whistleblower X, Mr. Jiamugae, spoke with the defendant Lee Dong-jae for the first time on February 24,” the state attorney said. Ji first asks Lee Dong-jae if he’s sending a letter because he has a vice principal. When a witness (Lee Chul) asked Ji to find out if the defendant Lee Dong-jae and the prosecution had sympathy, Lee said, “Reporter Lee Dong-jae said the letter was sympathetic. I think Mr. Ji confirmed it. “
The state attorney said: “It is not at all in the first, second and third letters whether or not to communicate with the prosecution. Ji first asks this reporter if he is doing this because he has a deputy director with the prosecution, and then, in response to the question, the content of the deputy director’s accusation appears in the fourth letter. If so, Mr. Ji first asked if he was deputy director, but why do you think he asked, “Lee said.” When I received the third letter, he considered that it contained information that would be unknown without the prosecution and the deputy director. I spoke about these events through my lawyer, Ji-Hyung Lee, and I guess they relayed it to Ji and asked Lee Dong-jae. “
When Ju’s lawyer asked, “Lee Dong-jae doesn’t specifically mention the prosecution officials in the letter, so we tried to find out if the line between the prosecutor’s officials and Lee Dong-jae ran through Ji? ” I felt like he was touching me. So it was to confirm. The state attorney replied, “Mr. Ji first asked if he had a good relationship with the prosecution, and reporter Lee Dong-jae responded by saying, ‘You cannot officially deal with the prosecution. In Korea, fleece is illegal and shouldn’t be done. ‘ (Lee Dong-jae) said that it’s a part that media companies can’t even participate in. “
“I am not a lobbyist. It is impossible to move in this case in a specific direction, ”he wrote. Instead, he used the expression to keep up with the report. He said there was an opportunity to explain in detail the representative’s sincerity to high-ranking prosecutors. As it means keeping up with the report, it reads as a means of contacting the prosecution after the media report, “Lee said.” It can be interpreted that way, but I divide the role with the prosecution beforehand, and the media first reports it and then the prosecution investigates. I understood it with the intention of doing it ”.
When Ju’s lawyer asked again, “If you look at this sentence, it means that you haven’t contacted the prosecution until you write the letter,” Lee said, “I can’t comment on it.”
Meanwhile, Mr. Ji, who is scheduled to serve as a witness this afternoon, was denied service of the subpoena three times due to the absence of a door to close (if the door to the house was closed and the postman could not deliver mail). Instead, Ji announced to the judge that she would be present as a witness after prosecutor Han Dong-hoon also received a newspaper of witnesses on his SNS on the afternoon of the 6th.
