Democratic Party moves to end President Lee’s trials: "They fabricated crimes that do not exist"

[Financial News] The Democratic Party of Korea has begun pushing to induce the cancellation of President Lee Jae-myung’s indictments. The party says it is prepared to use both a special prosecutor and a parliamentary investigation.
Jung Chung-rae, leader of the Democratic Party, convened a supreme council meeting at the National Assembly on the 6th. He stated, "We will take every possible measure, whether a parliamentary investigation or a special prosecutor, regarding the fabricated indictments that took place under the prosecutorial dictatorship of the Yoon Suk Yeol administration," as he raised the Daejang-dong development scandal and other cases involving President Lee.
Jung stressed, "We will track down the truth to the very end and hold those responsible to account so that, because of the prosecution, truth does not become falsehood and falsehood does not become truth, and democracy is not undermined."
In line with this, Democratic Party lawmakers are rallying to push through a parliamentary investigation. Representative Lee Geon-tae is reported to have sent text messages to fellow party lawmakers, asking them to join a group tentatively titled "Lawmakers’ group to promote cancellation of President Lee Jae-myung’s indictments and a parliamentary investigation."
Lee Geon-tae argued, "President Lee was brought to trial in the Daejang-dong development scandal, the Ssangbangwool North Korea remittances case, and the perjury coaching case through fabricated indictments by politically motivated prosecutors. Although all proceedings were halted after he was elected president, the fabricated indictments themselves have not disappeared." He continued, "An abnormal situation is persisting in which state affairs are being run with shackles placed on the president by making up crimes he did not commit." He added that he intends "to push for both cancellation of the indictments and a parliamentary investigation."
