The police have secured CCTV footage showing former and current intelligence commanders meeting at a Lotteria in Ansan, Gyeonggi Province, to conspire about martial law.
The National Police Agency's National Investigation Headquarters Special Investigation Unit on Martial Law announced on the 17th through a press release that "It has been confirmed that former Commander Noh Sang-won had prior discussions related to martial law with former Minister of National Defense Kim Yong-hyun and officials from the Intelligence Command."
The police believe that former Commander Noh conspired in advance about martial law on the 1st with Commander Moon Sang-ho of the Intelligence Command and two colonels belonging to the intelligence unit. It is reported that they detected circumstances where former Commander Noh instructed them to prepare as martial law was imminent and to secure the Central Election Management Committee (CEMC) servers related to election fraud.
Former Commander Noh served as the Intelligence Commander during the Park Geun-hye administration and is suspected to be an unofficial figure who planned this martial law, assisting former Minister of National Defense Kim Yong-hyun, a senior alumnus from the Korea Military Academy, in drafting the proclamation order.
Commander Moon is under suspicion of ordering the deployment of troops to the Central Election Management Committee in Gwacheon, Gyeonggi Province, following President Yoon Seok-youl's martial law declaration on the 3rd. He is also suspected of deploying the North Korean infiltration operations unit (HID) under the Intelligence Command to urgently arrest members of the National Assembly.
