The special prosecutor team investigating the ballot shortage during the June 3 local elections has requested a detailed examination of ballots that were removed from the Olympic Park handball stadium and have raised concerns.
On November 9, the special prosecutor team announced that they had completed a quantity verification and classification of the ballots and ballot storage boxes from Songpa District, which were randomly selected for verification at the Olympic Park handball stadium. They have now requested a detailed examination from two institutions: the Prosecutor's Office and the National Forensic Service.
The special prosecutor team stated, "We have also requested that both institutions expedite their responses, considering the duration of the special prosecutor's activities."
Previously, after completing a public verification at the Olympic Park handball stadium on October 28-29, the special prosecutor team analyzed over 700 ballots that the People Power Party's observers requested for additional verification out of the 2.47 million ballots that were removed.
The ballots in question include those showing signs of surface damage, post-modification or alteration, as well as ballots that are stiff without any creases or have faint ink impressions.
