During the disturbance at the Western District Court, the so-called 'Green Jumper Man,' who broke the court windows and glass doors to enter, has been referred to trial while in custody.
The Seoul Western District Prosecutors' Office noted on the 27th that it has indicted a man in his 20s, referred to as A, on charges including trespassing into a special building, on the 26th.
A is accused of breaking the security devices of the court's glass door and damaging windows with a fire extinguisher and other items during the disturbance at the Western District Court on the 19th of last month. He is also suspected of spraying a fire extinguisher at the police.
In a live-streamed YouTube video from that time, A was wearing a green jumper, which is why he is referred to as 'Green Jumper Man.' There were suspicions that A was a journalist among supporters of President Yoon Suk-yeol, but this was confirmed to be unfounded.
The prosecution added that they have additionally indicted a total of 4 individuals, including A and 3 others, as of the previous day.
The total number of people referred to trial due to the disturbance at the Western District Court is now 74. The first trial for these individuals will be held at the Western District Court on March 10.
