Prosecutors indicted Lee on breach of trust charges, accusing him of misusing some 106 million won in taxpayers' money during his 2018-21 stint as governor of Gyeonggi Province, just south of Seoul, according to Yonhap. Lee, who narrowly lost to President Yoon Suk Yeol in the 2022 election and is widely expected to seek to run again in 2027, has not publicly commented on the latest indictment, but has previously denied any wrongdoing and described other charges against the couple as"political retaliation."
