Former President Moon Jae-in has denounced the prosecution for indicting him on bribery charges, saying it acted unfairly.

Moon made the remarks Friday when he met with National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-shik ahead of a ceremony to commemorate the seventh anniversary of the Panmunjom Declaration from the April 27 inter-Korean summit.

The former president said it seemed that prosecutors must have been pushing toward a predetermined conclusion, since the indictment came while he was coordinating views and holding consultations with the prosecution. 

He called it a clear case of abuse of prosecutorial power and said he will focus on alerting the public to the politicization of the prosecution, in addition to proving his innocence. 

Moon then urged parliament to work closely with the incoming government to promptly stabilize the nation and the economy, expressing concerns over the launch of a new government without a presidential transition committee.
