“Theft of public information and speculation of real estate
It should be investigated and investigated, not full-scale investigation of’LH employees’
It is the national responsibility to prevent corruption.”

Former Prosecutor General Yoon Seok-yeol said, “It is an issue that requires an immediate and extensive investigation” on the allegations that the employees of the Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) were speculating on the 3rd new city candidates such as Gwangmyeong and Siheung.

Yun stressed that “corruption is quickly contagious, and it is the duty of the state to prevent it.”

According to the Chosun Ilbo on the 7th, Yun told reporters about the LH case, saying, “It is a crime of the ruin that steals public information and speculates on real estate.” How many people are angry.”

Former President Yoon expressed a critical view of the government’s own investigation led by the Prime Minister’s Office. This means that investigative agencies, such as the prosecution, must carry out extensive investigations to uncover the reality of corruption.

Former General Yoon said, “You should not do a thorough survey of’LH employees’, but a thorough survey of the’land of money’ and follow the purchase amount. Like the Prime Minister’s Office and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, LH or the Blue House employee only looked at the register and bought the land or not I’m not going to do a full investigation by asking verbally. What can I reveal by asking me verbally?”

He continued, “The new city development plan and compensation plan should be thoroughly analyzed to find the land that will be money. After analyzing the time of transaction, the unit of the transaction, and the state of use of the land, the beneficial owner should be identified through the tracking of the source of funds purchased.” “It is similar to the investigation of a financial case using undisclosed information. There will be more transactions under the name of the borrower than in the real name,” he argued.

Some employees of LH, who are outsiders, are buying up paddy fields in Gwangmyeong and Siheung new towns, planting seedlings, and waiting for land compensation.

The government plans to form a joint investigation team on the 4th and conduct a full investigation of real estate transactions including the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, affiliates, LH executives and employees, public officials, and their families. To this end, the investigation team received personal information agreements from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and LH employees, and conducted an on-site investigation by visiting the LH headquarters in Jinju. The government plans to rush through a thorough investigation and then announce the first results next week.
