June 3 Ballots Moved After 12-Hour Verification

The special counsel team investigating the June 3 election ballot shortage completed a 12-hour on-site inspection of roughly 2.47 million ballots on Thursday and then moved the boxes out of the Seoul handball arena where they had been stored, Yonhap and the Korea Times report. The inspection, launched Wednesday, was briefly halted after observers objected to a ban on recording, and 48 riot police units were deployed to maintain order during the process. Ruling and opposition lawmakers visited the site urging a thorough review, while protesters had blocked the removal of ballots stored there, calling for accountability and a rerun of the elections.
