The main opposition Liberty Korea Party will demand a parliamentary probe into allegations that the spy agency and prosecution used funds improperly during past liberal governments, a party official said Wednesday.
Rep. Kim Seon-dong, the vice LKP floor leader, said that the conservative party will submit a written request this week to call for the probe.
The move is seen as a counteroffensive to the ongoing prosecutorial investigations into suspicions that the National Intelligence Service provided illicit money to the presidential office during the former Park Geun-hye government.
