Allegations of 'Covering Up Investigation into Han Dong-hoon's Daughter' Assigned to Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's Metropolitan Investigation Unit

The police have assigned the complaint regarding the allegations of covering up the investigation into independent lawmaker Han Dong-hoon's 'daughter's false credentials' to the Metropolitan Investigation Unit of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency and are launching a full-scale investigation.
The Metropolitan Crime Investigation Division of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency's Metropolitan Investigation Unit plans to summon officials from civic groups, including the Institute for People's Economic Research, who filed the complaint against Han, for questioning at 10:00 AM on the 27th.
In May 2022, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency received a complaint alleging that the daughter of Han, who was the Minister of Justice at the time, requested ghostwriting for a thesis and published a plagiarized e-book to gain admission to a prestigious university in the United States.
The police reached a decision not to transfer the case the following December, but the complainants claim that the investigation was not conducted properly—citing instances such as the prosecution blocking requests for international judicial assistance—and have filed complaints against Han and the former and current prosecutors in charge of the case on charges including dereliction of duty.
