Prosecutors and police investigating emergency martial law cases, respectively, are also speeding up their investigations targeting each other over allegations of martial law support.

There are concerns that the investigative agencies' war of nerves, which had been competing for the lead in the investigation, may be disrupted in the investigation of the emergency martial law situation.

The Special Investigation Headquarters of the Prosecution Service raided the National Investigation Headquarters of the National Police Agency on the 19th.

This is to investigate allegations that the police sent detectives to the arrest team of politicians at the request of the Defense Security Command.

Woo Jong-soo, head of the National Investigation Headquarters of the police's special investigation team, was also confiscated
The
police countered that they were not equipped with arrest equipment, saying they simply provided the list because they thought it was for directions.

At the same time, the police raised suspicions about the prosecution's involvement in martial law.

On the day of martial law, he secured statements from counterintelligence soldiers that "the prosecution and the National Intelligence Service were ordered to support them because they would go to the NEC."

The prosecution denies the allegations altogether, saying it has not received any requests from the counterintelligence agency.

The prosecution and police, who were in conflict over the leadership of the investigation, transferred the case related to President Yoon to the Senior Civil Servant Corruption Investigations Unit, and the traffic seemed to be cleared, but the conflict seems to have ignited again due to the investigation targeting each other.

If the independent counsel law is introduced, both the prosecution and the police have to transfer the case unless there is a justifiable reason, but it is unclear how much results can be made before then.

There are also concerns that the investigation into the emergency martial law situation may not be carried out properly while focusing on the war of nerves.
