(5)Members of the county who bought chicken and pizza for officials on emergency duty due to the typhoon last fall were fined
(6)According to the court on the 25th, Lee Young-jin, a senior judge of the Chuncheon District Court, sentenced A55 and B54 to 500,000 won in fines and one year of probation for violating the Public Official Election Act
(7)The two, who were elected in the June 1 local elections, were indicted on charges of providing 125,300 won worth of food, including chicken, pizza and beverages, to about 10 government officials on emergency duty at the county’s disaster response headquarters on the evening of September 5
(8)They are accused of breaking the rules that local councillors are not allowed to contribute to the institutional facilities in the constituency
(9)The court criticized, “In light of the purpose of the Public Official Election Act, which strictly prohibits donation regardless of name or form, it deserves a corresponding punishment.”
(10)”The food prices provided by the defendants were not large, and the act of providing them was only one-off,” he said. “It is hard to say that it will have a significant impact on the next election as it takes place about three months after the local elections.”
