Second Special Counsel Summons Former Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office Chief Lee Chang-soo Over Alleged Cover-up of Deutsch Motors Probe

The second special counsel team has summoned Lee Chang-soo, the former chief of the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, for the first time regarding allegations that he suppressed the investigation into First Lady Kim Keon-hee's involvement in the Deutsch Motors stock manipulation case.
The special counsel team announced that it plans to summon Lee at 10:00 a.m. today (June 15) as a suspect on charges including the creation of false official documents.
Lee is suspected of having improperly intervened in the process that led the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office to clear First Lady Kim Keon-hee of charges related to the Deutsch Motors stock manipulation and the receipt of a Dior bag in October 2024.
The special counsel team plans to summon Choi Jae-hoon, the former head of the Anti-Corruption Investigation Department 2 at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office, who was the lead prosecutor in the Deutsch Motors stock manipulation case, tomorrow regarding the same allegations.
