The special prosecutor's team led by Cho Eun-seok has asserted the necessity of detaining former Colonel Kim Hyun-tae, the ex-commander of the 707th Special Mission Battalion, in connection with an insurrection case. The team announced on the 19th that they had submitted a document to the court suggesting Kim's detention was essential due to his participation in misleading public opinion and exacerbating societal divisions through large-scale YouTube broadcasts and public gatherings. They stated that Kim's actions, which included failing to show genuine remorse and even filing complaints against citizens who opposed martial law, were intolerable in light of the public's sentiments surrounding the insurrection case.
