The COVID-19 situation in South Korea is escalating rapidly, with more confirmed cases and deaths being reported.
Thus, it isn’t surprising that the government of Seoul has asked for a murder investigation into leaders of a Christian sect which is the epicentre of the COVID-19 outbreak in South Korea.
The government of Seoul said that the church was liable for its refusal to cooperate with efforts to contain the virus.
What Happened
Lest you’ve been hiding under a rock, you’d know that a large majority of over 4,000 confirmed cases of the COVID-19 in South Korea has been linked to the Shincheonji Church of Jesus secretive movement that which follows the founder Lee Man-hee.
Mr Park Won-soon who is the mayor of the capital Seoul said that if Lee and other leaders of the church had worked together with them, the preventive measures might have saved those who later died of the virus.
Mr Park said in a post on Facebook, “The situation is this serious and urgent, but where are the leaders of the Shincheonji, including Lee Man-hee, the chief director of this crisis?”
Health authorities also claimed that they were given a list of 317,320 Shincheonji members and “trainees”, but were informed that it wasn’t complete.

Criminal Complaint Filed
Seoul city’s government announced in a statement that it had filed a criminal complaint with the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office which asked for an investigation of Lee and 12 others on charges of murder and disease control act violations.
The prosecutors’ office has received the complaint and is currently in the process of reviewing it.
Health authorities have also confirmed that the majority of the confirmed cases in Daegu, which is another Korean city were linked to a branch of the church there.
An individual had tested positive in February but continued to attend services at least twice.
Let’s hope that the COVID-19 situation in South Korea improves.
In the meantime, do remember to practice good personal hygiene and visit a healthcare professional if you are feeling unwell.
After all, as we can see, if people don’t work together during a crisis, there’s nowhere else for a company to go but down.
