Parliament passes special counsel bill on fabricated indictments

The National Assembly, led by the ruling Democratic Party, passed a bill Friday calling for a special counsel probe into allegations of fabricated indictments targeting President Lee Jae Myung and others, Yonhap and the Korea Times report. The bill, introduced by the ruling party, was approved after passing a parliamentary subcommittee and standing committee earlier in the week, with KBS World noting it examines malicious prosecution claims under the previous Yoon Suk Yeol administration. The legislation now moves to the government for promulgation, though no further steps were detailed in the reports.
