The Unification Church (World Peace and Unification Family Federation) is taking steps to expel former World Headquarters Director Yoon Yong-ho, who is suspected of giving money and gifts to Ms. Kim Gun-Hee.
The head of the Unification Church has protested, calling it a "cutting of the tail of a lizard." On the 20th, the press release of the newspaper "Jeongron Jongsin," which represents former head of the Unification Church, stated that on the 20th of this month, the head of the Unification Church announced that former head of the Unification Church, Yoon, was absent.
In response, Jeongron Jokbun stated, "The Unification Church held a disciplinary committee meeting against former Headquarters Director Yoon Yong-ho and his wife, and it is clear that the decision to expel them was made without a judicial decision having been made.
"The Unification Church stated that the decision is not final because the official document has not yet been sent," the report said. "Former Chairman Yoon will begin filing an application for a provisional disposition to suspend the expulsion and an administrative lawsuit.
It has been learned that the group plans to submit public interest documents regarding the corruption, embezzlement and unbelieving acts of Vice President Jeong Won-ju of the Cheon Muwon Foundation and his close associates to the investigative agencies and the media.
Yoon, former head of the organization, emphasized that he will be receiving a diamond necklace, which was given to Ms. Kim, from April to August 2022 as a request for assistance with the Unification Church's pending issues.
She is currently under investigation by the prosecution for allegedly giving the bag to Jeong Seong-bae, a former monk known as Kongjin Monk. Her wife, Lee, is accused of purchasing one of the two designer bags that Yoon had intended to give to Kim.
The Unification Church has denied any connection to the church and the Yoon couple since the early stages of the prosecutor's investigation into Yoon Yong-ho.
"It's like cutting off their tail," he said. This suggests that the high-ranking members of the cult are worried about becoming targets of special investigations and are trying to end it through Yoon's efforts.
Meanwhile, the Kim Gun Hee special investigation team will be made up of up to 205 people, including 40 dispatched prosecutors, and is expected to begin full-scale investigations as early as the end of this month.
The investigation covers 16 charges, including stock price manipulation, the Yangpyeong Expressway scandal, and interference in public elections.
