Han Jia Criticizes Party Leader Jang Dong-hyuk's Negotiation with Protesters

Han Jia, a lawmaker from the People Power Party, criticized People Power Party leader Jang Dong-hyuk for negotiating with protesters at the Seoul Olympic Park Handball Gymnasium, calling it a 'disappearance of the rule of law and public authority.'

The police plan to strictly process the case based on collected evidence.
