Lee Jun-seok Raises Suspicions of People Power Party's Involvement in 'Jeong I-han Staged Terror Plot'

Lee Jun-seok, leader of the Reform Party, has raised suspicions regarding the People Power Party's involvement in the staged terror plot by Jeong I-han, a former Reform Party candidate for Busan Mayor.
In a Facebook post last night (July 11), Lee stated, "Jeong I-han is someone who worked as an aide at the People Power Party," adding, "I do not know if people from the People Power Party orchestrated this incident during the election and if these moths are fluttering around."
He continued, "It is not that I do not know who from the People Power Party approached Jeong I-han and planted strange thoughts in his mind," and warned, "If a certain candidate's camp made an unusual proposal to Jeong I-han, you are finished."
This is an explanation suggesting that the People Power Party, which had proposed a candidacy merger to former candidate Jeong during the Busan mayoral election process, may have influenced the staged terror plot.

Former candidate Jeong claimed to have been a victim of a beverage-related terror attack during the Busan mayoral election, but it was later revealed to be a staged act, leading to his arrest on July 8.
Previously, People Power Party lawmaker Joo Jin-woo stated on July 10, "It is said that he already confessed to the staged terror plot during police questioning last May," adding, "However, the police hid the fact of the confession until the election was over, and Jeong I-han completed the election campaign while wearing a fake neck brace and pretending to be a victim of terror."
