According to the Ministry of National Defense on December 19, several officers and non-commissioned officers from the 707th Special Mission Group who were deployed to the National Assembly during the 12·3 Martial Law have been temporarily reassigned to the Army’s 7th Corps until the ministry’s related investigation is concluded.
A Ministry of National Defense official stated, “Over the past three weeks, the Constitutional Respect and Government Innovation Task Force (TF) has been receiving reports,” adding, “In order to conduct a fair and transparent investigation and verify the facts regarding those who were reported, we considered the nature of their duties and the content of the reports, and decided to temporarily reassign some personnel.”
