Police have raided the Unification Church's headquarters and nine other locations as part of an investigation into whether various political figures received money and gifts from the organization.

The National Police Agency’s special investigation team said Monday that it had begun executing search warrants at around 9 a.m. at ten sites, including the church’s headquarters in Gapyeong, Gyeonggi Province, and offices in central Seoul.

Targets reportedly included the office of former Oceans and Fisheries Minister Chun Jae‑soo at the National Assembly; the Seoul Detention Center, where Yun Young‑ho, former head of the church’s global headquarters, is in custody; and the office of the special counsel investigating former first lady Kim Keon‑hee.

Police are expected to examine the church’s accounting records to trace the flow of funds and identify money or gifts used for lobbying.

Last week, police registered Chun, former Democratic Party lawmaker Lim Jong‑seong, and former United Future Party lawmaker Kim Gyu‑hwan as suspects of bribery and violations of the Political Funds Act. All three have denied the allegations.

Yun is also under investigation for illegally providing political funds.
