「ソウル西部地裁暴動」で消火器を持った「緑のジャンパーの男」を逮捕=韓国
”Man in green jumper” with fire extinguisher arrested at ”Seoul Western District Court riot” = South Korea
In the early hours of the 19th of last month, the same day President Yoon Seok-yeol was arrested, a ``man in a green jumper'' carrying a fire extinguisher was arrested by police among a group that stormed the Seoul Western District Court.
Seoul Mapo Police Station announced on the 3rd that it had arrested a man yesterday afternoon and was investigating. The man broke a window at the Western District Court building with a stick and sprayed a fire extinguisher at police officers standing at the main gate.
The scene was broadcast live on YouTube, where the man was seen destroying security equipment with a fire extinguisher. Some people suspected that the man was a "JTBC reporter," but JTBC responded by saying, "There is no evidence to support this claim."
"We are collecting unauthorized online posts and articles from some media outlets," it said, adding, "We will launch strong civil and criminal legal action against all those who create and distribute related content."
He warned, "The police also claimed that this was completely untrue." While the police are investigating the man's allegations, they are also accelerating their investigation into the Western District Court riots.
Pastor Jeong Gwang-hoon of the Sarang First Church, who mentioned the "right to national resistance" at a rally before the riots, as well as online
People who posted messages on the internet such as "It would be better to jump over the fence" and "Let's sabotage the car and drag the judge out" are also under investigation.
In the legal profession, if we were to specifically mention the method of the riot at the Western District Court, it would be considered a riot or obstruction of justice.
It is believed that he may be charged with incitement to harm and be subject to punishment, but it is also predicted that it will be relatively difficult to apply the charge of inciting civil unrest.
Between the 18th and 19th of last month, a man believed to be a special evangelist from Pastor Chung's church broke into the judge's room at the Western District Court.
A total of 63 people have been arrested for illegal activities in and around the Western District Court.
