In a statement on Feb. 9, the South Headquarters accused the group of having searched the office of Jaju Minbo and walked off Representative Ri Chang Gi in the wake of suppressing the People for Achieving Peace and Reunification on charges of violating "Security Law".

The statement described the group's suppression as hysteria intended to hide its crimes and divert the public criticism.

It also amounts to last-ditch efforts to head off the people's campaign to defeat the Lee Myung Bak "government" and the traitorous Grand National Party in the April general elections, says the statement.

The statement called for dealing a blow of justice to the Lee group so that it can no longer take office.
