In the appeal trial of Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon, who was indicted on suspicion of 'paying public opinion survey fees on behalf of others' and sentenced to a fine of 10 million won in the first trial, on the 2nd, the special prosecutor's team requested that Mayor Oh be sentenced to one year and six months in prison and ordered to be fined 33 million won. The special prosecutor's team pointed out, "Mayor Oh, as a prominent politician, was in a position where he had to comply with the Political Funds Act above all, yet he paid the poll costs, which are closely related to political activities, without going through the proper procedures, and had them pay the costs of public opinion polls directly related to his political activities," adding, "This undermined public trust in the law and order." He continued, "Despite being the subject of ultimate benefit from the crime, he has shown an attitude of denying the charges and evading responsibility throughout the investigation and court, making severe punishment unavoidable," he emphasized. In the first trial last July, the court found that 5 out of 10 public opinion polls included in the indictment amounted to 21 million won in costs, and sentenced to a fine of 10 million won, and a fine of 21 million won They also ordered confiscation. According to the Political Funds Act, if a criminal sentence of 1 million won or more is finalized for fraudulent receipt of political funds, the person cannot hold public office or be appointed for five years. In the ,,,second trial, if the sentence is similar to the first trial ,,, or exceeds 1 million won, the mayor of Seoul will be lost, and with five years left,,, a presidential election is out of the dream!!!!!!!
