On October 23, Seoul Central Prosecutor's House searched for the house of Mr. Tsuji in Seoul city, over the allegations of the South Korean President Mun-Jaein's affair and the alleged misconduct of his family. For the first time in a series of suspicions, the prosecution forcibly investigated Mr. Tsuji's home.
The exact charges of the search are unknown. The prosecution has so far charged his wife's wife at home for fraudulent private documents over the misconduct associated with his daughter's admission to college. Even with allegations of investment, he is arresting relatives for embezzlement charges.
The Korean media reported that the investigation of the house was related to fraudulent investigations that forged the documents necessary for her daughter's admission to university. The suspicion that his wife tried to hide the evidence emerged, and the prosecution is also investigating the involvement of Mr. Tsuji himself.
The prosecution seems to have seized the hard disk of a personal computer from Mr. Tsuji's home. There is a suspicion that a company invested by a fund of a family investee has increased the number of orders for local government business, and the policy is to investigate the situation.
If Mr. Tsuji is able to investigate himself, the administration of Mr. Wen ’s government, which has a downward trend in support, will become more severe. In response to this day's search, spokesmen from the ruling party and the Democratic Party both criticized the prosecution, saying, “I was unable to find any suspicion and forced an impossible house search again.” On the other hand, the largest opposition party and the Liberal Republic of Korea urged in a statement that "the president should not delay the decision to dismiss Mr. Roh."
