SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea¡¯s former defense minister and coast guard chief were arrested Saturday over their alleged involvement in covering up facts and distorting the circumstances surrounding North Korea¡¯s killing of a South Korean fisheries official in 2020 near the rivals¡¯ tense sea border.¼¿ï (AP) Çѱ¹ÀÇ Àü ±¹¹æÀå°ü°ú ÇؾȰæºñ´ëÀå µîÀº Åä¿äÀÏ »ç½ÇÀ» ÀºÆóÇÏ°í ºÏÇÑÀÌ °æÀï±¹ÀÇ ±äÀåµÈ ÇØ»ó°æ°è ±Ùó¿¡¼ 2020³â¿¡ Çѱ¹ÀÇ ¼ö»ê°ü°èÀÚ »ìÇØ¿Í °ü·ÃµÈ »óȲÀ» ¿Ö°îÇÑ ÇøÀǷΠüÆ÷µÆ´Ù.The arrests came as the government of conservative President Yoon Suk Yeol expands investigations into the 2020 killing and another border incident the year before that prompted criticism that Seoul¡¯s previous liberal administration improperly appeased the North to improve ties.À̹ø üÆ÷´Â º¸¼ö ¼ºÇâÀÇ À±¼®¿ Á¤ºÎ°¡ ±× ÇØ 2020³â »ìÀÎ »ç°Ç°ú ¶Ç ´Ù¸¥ ±¹°æ »ç°Ç¿¡ ´ëÇÑ ¼ö»ç¸¦ È®´ëÇÔ¿¡ µû¶ó ÀÌ·ç¾îÁ³´Âµ¥ ÀÌ·Î ÀÎÇØ Çѱ¹ÀÇ ÀÌÀü Áøº¸ Á¤±ÇÀÌ ºÏÇÑ °ü°è¿¡ ¸Å´Þ·È´Ù´Â ºñ³À» ¹Þ°í ÀÖ´Ù.The Seoul Central District Court said it granted prosecutors¡¯ requests for arrest warrants on former Defense Minister Suh Wook and former Coast Guard Commissioner General Kim Hong-hee because it saw them as threats to destroy evidence or flee.¼¿ïÁß¾ÓÁö¹ýÀº ¼¿í Àü ±¹¹æÀå°ü°ú ±èÈ«¾÷ Àü Çؾç°æÂûûÀå¿¡ ´ëÇØ °ËÂûÀÌ Ã»±¸ÇÑ ±¸¼Ó¿µÀåÀº Áõ°ÅÀÎ¸ê ¹× µµÁÖ ¿ì·Á°¡ ÀÖ´Ù°í ÆÇ´ÜÇØ ¿µÀåÀ» ¹ßºÎÇß´Ù°í ¹àÇû´Ù.The opposition liberal Democratic Party, which claims the investigations are being driven by Yoon¡¯s political vendetta against his predecessor Moon Jae-in, accused prosecutors of ¡°manipulating the truth¡± to support Yoon¡¯s ¡°political crackdown.¡±¹®ÀçÀÎ Àü ´ëÇ¥¿¡ ´ëÇÑ À±¾¾ÀÇ Á¤Ä¡Àû º¸º¹À¸·Î ¼ö»ç°¡ ÁøÇàµÇ°í ÀÖ´Ù°í ÁÖÀåÇÏ´Â ¾ß´çÀÎ ´õºÒ¾î¹ÎÁÖ´çÀº À±¾¾ÀÇ 'Á¤Ä¡Àû ź¾Ð'À» µÞ¹ÞħÇϱâ À§ÇØ °ËÂûÀÌ 'Áø½Ç Á¶ÀÛ'À» Çß´Ù°í ºñ³Çß´Ù.The party also criticized the separate arrest on Saturday of Kim Yong, a close confidante of current party leader Lee Jae-myung, over suspicions that he raised illegal campaign funds to help finance Lee¡¯s presidential bid before his loss to Yoon in the vote in March.´õºÒ¾î¹ÎÁÖ´çÀº ¶Ç 3¿ù ÃѼ±¿¡¼ À±¿¡°Ô ÆÐÇϱâ Àü ÀÌ Èĺ¸ÀÇ ´ë¼±ÀÚ±ÝÀ» ¸¶·ÃÇϱâ À§ÇØ ºÒ¹ý ´ë¼±ÀÚ±ÝÀ» ¸ð±ÝÇß´Ù´Â ÀÇȤ°ú °ü·ÃÇØ, ÀÌÀç¸í Çö ´ç ´ëÇ¥ÀÇ Ãø±ÙÀÎ ±è¿ë¾¾¸¦ Åä¿äÀÏ¿¡ º°µµ·Î üÆ÷ÇÑ °ÍÀ» ºñÆÇÇß´Ù.¡°Since it¡¯s a court decision, we respect it.

The agency also said the coast guard under Kim had manipulated the results of simulations of Lee¡¯s drifting to buttress the claim that he tried to defect.ÀÌ ±â°üÀÇ º¸°í¿¡ µû¸£¸é ¼ Àå°üÀº ¹® ´ëÅë·ÉÀÇ ±¹°¡¾Èº¸½Ç Áö½Ã¸¦ ¹Þ¾Æ Á¤ºÎ°¡ ÀÌÀÇ »ç¸Á ¹ßÇ¥¸¦ ¹Ì·ç¸é¼ ±¹¹Î¿¡°Ô ¾î¶»°Ô ¼³¸íÇÒÁö °í¹ÎÇÏÀÚ ÀÌ »ç°Ç°ú °ü·ÃµÈ ±º»çÁ¤º¸ º¸°í¼ 60¿© °ÇÀ» »èÁ¦Ç϶ó°í °ü°èÀÚ¿¡°Ô Áö½ÃÇß´Ù.

Suh and Kim didn¡¯t answer reporters¡¯ questions about the allegations earlier on Friday as they appeared at the court hours apart for reviews on the prosecution¡¯s warrant requests. Lee Rae-jin, the brother of the late Lee, protested in front of the court calling for Suh and Kim¡¯s arrests. He was held back by the court¡¯s security staff when he tried to approach Suh as he arrived for the review.¼¾¾¿Í ±è¾¾´Â À̳¯ ¿ÀÀü °ËÂûÀÇ ¿µÀå û±¸¿¡ ´ëÇÑ °ËÅ並 À§ÇØ µû·Î ¹ý¿ø¿¡ Ãâ¼®ÇÏ¸é¼ ÀÌ °°Àº ÀÇȤ¿¡ ´ëÇÑ ÃëÀçÁøÀÇ Áú¹®¿¡ ´äÇÏÁö ¾Ê¾Ò´Ù.
