首尔市长在法庭否认代理民调支付指控

首尔市长吴世勋周三在首尔中央地方法院首次正式审判中否认代理支付舆论调查费用的指控。特别检察团队指称,在2021年首尔市长补选前,吴指示一名支持者代付3300万韩元。吴的辩护方反驳称,他没有提出此类请求或动机。

在首尔中央地方法院举行的首次正式审判中,首尔市长吴世勋否认安排代理支付舆论调查费用的指控。由闵钟基领导的特别检察团队去年12月起诉吴,指称他指示长期支持者向自称权力掮客的明泰均支付3300万韩元(2.23万美元),用于2021年1月至2月进行的10次舆论调查。这些调查由明在韩国东南部城市昌原实际运营的未来韩国研究院在2021年首尔市长补选前进行。 特别检察团队指称,吴于2021年1月21日前后致电明要求进行民调,并指示其幕僚长姜哲元与明协商。当时,吴还要求支持者金汉中支付费用,据该团队称。 吴的律师反驳称,他既没有要求明进行与首尔市长补选相关的任何舆论调查,也没有这样做动机。他们强调,没有理由从小公司如未来韩国研究院委托民调。 在进入法庭前,吴向记者表达了对起诉时机的疑虑,指出这与6月3日地方选举竞选期重合。“此案自2024年9月以来公开,我曾多次要求检察机关和调查机构迅速调查,”吴说。“但请求未被接受,特别检察调查后审判和选举期恰好重合。”此案在吴的政治活动中备受关注。
