The statement said the ruling and opposition parties joined hands to cover up the truth behind the ferry Sewol disaster, far from instituting a special law for probing the truth.

The "Saenuri Party" has only been concerned for the issue of appointing a special prosecutor to curry favor with the "president", not thinking about setting up a fact-finding committee which has the rights to investigation and indictment as demanded by the bereaved families, the statement deplored.

There is no reason for the political party failing to speak for the people to exist, it noted, terming the "Saenuri Party" a group of depraved guys.

It urged the opposition parties to cancel the collusion with the ruling party and resume the negotiations for instituting a special law, though belatedly.
