'Suspension of duty' postponed to tomorrow for the first interrogation of the suspension of the execution of Lee Ki-heung, chairman of the sports committee.

The first interrogation of the suspension of execution case filed by Lee Ki-heung, chairman of the Korea Sports Council, against the suspension of his duties by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has been postponed until tomorrow.

The Seoul Administrative Court has changed the interrogation date for Chairman Lee's request for suspension of execution against the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism from this afternoon to 3 p.m. tomorrow.

Earlier, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism notified Chairman Lee of the suspension of his duties last month based on the results of an investigation by the government's joint public service inspection team in the Cabinet Office, which objected to the request and filed a court request for cancellation and suspension of execution.

Separately, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism also requested an investigation into the executives of the sports association, including Chairman Lee, regarding allegations that he unfairly hired his daughter's college friend as an employee of Jincheon Training Center.
