Seoul - Yonhap
A minor opposition lawmaker suspected by the state intelligence agency of plotting a rebellion against the state claimed Thursday that the allegations had been fabricated in an effort to suppress democratic forces.
The National Intelligence Service (NIS) raided the homes and offices of Rep. Lee Seok-ki and nine other members of the minor opposition Unified Progressive Party (UPP) on Wednesday for allegedly plotting a rebellion involving blowing up infrastructure in the country and helping North Korea in the event of an inter-Korean war.
