The arrest warrant for Jeon Sung-bae, a "building judge" suspected of violating the Political Fund Act, has been rejected.

As Jeon is also suspected of intervening in interests by using his relationship with Yoon Suk Yeol's president and his wife, attention is being paid to the impact of Jeon's investigation on the political sector, apart from the rejection of the arrest warrant.

During the 2018 local elections, the arrest warrant for "Junjin Corporation" and Jeon Sung-bae, who are accused of receiving 100 million won in bribes for the nomination of Yeongcheon mayor in North Gyeongsang Province, was rejected.

Suspicion is that he received illegal political funds from a prospective candidate who ran in the Liberty Korea Party's party primary to help him with the election,
The
court rejected the warrant, saying that the date or amount of money received was not clearly confirmed.

He also pointed out that if the prosecution delivered the money to the political community as it suspected, there is room for a different view of the nature of the crime.

In addition to the allegations of illegal political funds applied by the prosecution, Jeon is also suspected of intervening in various interests by showing off his friendship with the president and his wife.

In fact, he served as an advisor to Kobana Content, run by First Lady Kim Gun-hee, and was also named in the Yoon Suk Yeol candidate camp during the 2022 presidential election.

As such, attention is being paid to whether there will be any new circumstances regarding the relationship between Jeon and the president's wife in addition to the allegations of illegal political funds during the investigation.

[Jun Seong-bae / Master Geon-jin: (Do you admit that you received illegal political funds?)]." "(You are suspected of intervening in interests by showing off your friendship with the President and his wife, do you have anything to say?)…." "(When was the last time you met with the President and his wife?)…." "(Have you been in touch with the President and his wife these days?) ....]

In particular, the impact is expected depending on what will come out of the cell phones and tablet PCs that the prosecution previously seized at Jeon's home and the law office.
