Four ROK Military Officers Indicted for Surveilling Families of Ferry Disaster
I am not sure what authorities the Defense Security Command had, but if they were conducting illegal surveillance than people should be held accountable:
A special military probe team has indicted four senior uniformed officers, including two general-grade ones, for their alleged role in the illicit surveillance of family members of victims in a 2014 ferry disaster, investigators said Tuesday.
The team wrapped up its monthslong inquiry into the allegations that officials of the now-defunct Defense Security Command (DSC) monitored the victims’ families to minimize the political impact of the tragic incident that laid bare the government’s ineptitude in crisis management.
Investigators indicted and detained a major general, a brigadier general and a colonel for issuing directives for the purported surveillance. Another colonel was also indicted without detention on the same charges.
The ferry Sewol sank in waters off the country’s southwestern island of Jindo on April 16, 2014, leaving more than 300 passengers dead or missing. The bereaved families’ criticism of the government’s response to the disaster worsened public sentiment against the then-Park Geun-hye administration. [Yonhap]
You can read more at the link, but the Moon administration has already “reformed” the Defense Security Command:

The Korean leaders tossed Yi Sun-sin into prison, too… They have learned nothing. since the 16th Century.
More officers Commie Moon wants to replace by any means necessary.
Clearly necessary to monitor activities since the Sewol protest were conduct and staged by nK activists. Just like the 2002 traffic accident and American beef protest.
