이태원 참사, ‘용산 경찰•소방•구청 지휘부 일제히 수사선상… 이상민 거취 논란에 "최선 다해 업무 수행” Along with an apology,... President Yoon also vowed to ensure accountability for the Itaewon tragedy. Investigations are underway,... centered on top officials at the local police and fire stations, as well as the Yongsan-gu district office. Lee Kyung-eun has the latest. "Where were the senior police officers?” That's a key question in the ongoing investigations into the Itaewon crush. To answer it, an independent investigation team launched by the police... is probing senior authorities in charge of Yongsan-gu District, where the accident occurred. At the center of the scrutiny... is the now-suspended Yongsan-gu police chief, Lee Im-jae, on suspicion of professional negligence resulting in death... for allegedly arriving at the site too late and taking too long to report the emergency. The head of Yongsan Fire Station, Choi Sung-beom, faces the same accusation... for allegedly failing to promptly communicate with the police and respond to the situation. And... Park Hee-young -- the head of Yongsan-gu district office -- who allegedly failed to come up with a crowd control management plan... despite knowing of the risks. Meanwhile, in a higher police organization, the Seoul city police agency,... senior officer Ryu Mi-jin is accused of being absent from her seat in an emergency monitoring room... on the night of the crush. The investigation team says the probe could expand into even higher-level organizations,... including the Seoul city government... and the interior ministry, which hold ultimate responsibility for maintaining public safety. "Here at the National Assembly, there are also growing calls for a parliamentary probe into the accident from the main opposition Democratic Party. But the ruling People Power Party firmly rejects the idea -- citing the potential for confusion and delays." While a parliamentary probe remains uncertain, lawmakers have held the first Q&A with relevant agencies. Much attention was on the growing calls for interior minister Lee Sang-min to resign. When asked about it, Lee said simply that he will do his best to carry out his duties.
