Former Inspector to be Questioned over Surveillance(n. 감시, 사찰) Claims
The prosecution on Thursday will question a former investigator at the presidential office regarding his claim that the top office illegally monitored civilians.
Kim Tae-woo, a former prosecution investigator who was on a special inspection team at the presidential office, will reportedly appear for questioning at 1:30 p.m. at the Seoul Eastern District Prosecutors' Office(서울동부지방검찰청).
In questioning(심문에서), Kim is expected to provide a detailed explanation about how the top office allegedly(주장에 의하면) spied on civilians and handled information regarding corruption and irregularities involving senior officials in the ruling camp.
Kim has claimed that he illegally surveilled civilians following direct orders from his superior.
The prosecution launched an investigation into his claim after the main opposition Liberty Korea Party filed a complaint last month against presidential Chief of Staff Im Jong-seok, senior presidential secretary for civil affairs Cho Kuk and two presidential anti-corruption officials for abuse of power(직권남용) and dereliction of duty(직무유기).
