SEOUL - A notebook belonging to a former military intelligence commander who was arrested in the recent martial law investigation contained details about plans to "provoke North Korea into an attack" at the de facto inter-Korea sea border, police said on Dec 23.
The Korean National Police Agency's National Office of Investigation (NOI) told reporters the notes, reading "provoke North Korea into an attack at the Northern Limit Line" and "block the National Assembly," along with memos listing a number of lawmakers, journalists, prosecutors and government officials as individuals to be "collected," were found at the residence of former defence intelligence commander Noh Sang-won on Dec 20.
The memo also detailed how the individuals on the list would be accommodated and handled.
