Prosecutors Raid Home and Office of Gyeongi Province Governor In Search of Wife’s Cell Phone

The Moon administration continues to go after a political rival using the country’s libel laws:

Prosecutors on Tuesday raided Gyeonggi Province Gov. Lee Jae-myung’s office and home, apparently to search for his wife’s old mobile phone believed to hold crucial evidence in investigations into her suspected role in political slander.

Prosecutors and investigators from the Suwon District Prosecutors’ Office began the raid on Lee’s home in Seongnam, south of Seoul, at around 9 a.m.

About the same time, another group of prosecutors searched Lee’s office in Suwon in the presence of the governor and his lawyer.

The raid was apparently intended to retrieve an iPhone used by Lee’s wife, Kim Hye-kyung, from July 2016 until April this year, when allegations of her involvement in online slandering of Lee’s election rivals surfaced.

Kim, who is suspected of posting slanderous messages on social media sites via her mobile phone, changed her iPhone and phone number in April and told police investigators later that she was not aware of its whereabouts.  [Yonhap]

The ironic part about this is that this guy is a leftwing party as well, the same political spectrum as Moon’s party, possibly even further left. They were allies when they brought down the Park administration. Now that Moon got his power, Moon’s been eliminating his former political allies and his political rivals (present and future), one by one. The other former ally and another Moon’s rivals was former governor Ahn Hee Jeong who was charged with rape then found not guilty by the courts (but in the end, still forced to resign).

Eliminating challenges to his leadership inside the communist party, just like Stalin did.
