Former Minister Lee Sang-min, when did you summon him?

[Reporter]
Yes, the police summoned Lee Sang-min, the former Minister of Public Administration and Security, as a suspect around 2 p.m. today.

Former Minister Lee is accused of sympathizing with President Yoon's declaration of emergency martial law.

Earlier, the police banned the former minister Lee from leaving the country on the 8th, and on the 9th, they notified the former minister to attend and be investigated.

The police are expected to ask former minister Lee how he attended the Cabinet meeting and whether he had previously plotted emergency martial law.

It is also expected to investigate the background of the police's use in the National Assembly.

Earlier yesterday, the police called in the Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs Song Mi-ryeong as a reference to investigate the members of the State Council.

In addition to Minister Song Mi-ryeong, Justice Minister Park Sung-jae and Health and Welfare Minister Cho Kyu-hong were found to have been investigated as reference persons.

Police have already called more than half of the 11 members of the State Council who attended the Cabinet meeting held before the declaration of emergency martial law,
As some members of the State Council have not yet been investigated by the police, such as Prime Minister Han Deok-soo
, police investigations are expected to continue.

Investigation of martial law-related soldiers is also in full swing?

[Reporter]
Yes, the police are also investigating military officials regarding emergency martial law.

The police immediately arrested Moon Sang-ho and Roh Sang-won yesterday.Commander

is suspected of ordering the National Election Commission to send troops to the National Election Commission in Gwacheon City, Gyeonggi Province, after declaring martial law.

As troops arrived two minutes after the declaration of martial law at the time, the police are mindful of the possibility that Commander Moon knew or planned martial law in advance.

In addition, former commander Roh is suspected of drafting a decree as the intelligence commander during the Park Geun Hye regime.

The Democratic Party of Korea also claimed that former commander Roh was seen as a key figure in planning the rebellion as a secret election for former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun.

Police also said more than 1,500 soldiers were mobilized for the emergency martial law incident, including not only executives but also ordinary soldiers,
As it is the result of an investigation of 43 active soldiers
, there is a possibility that the size of the input will increase if the investigation proceeds further in the future.
