🔥 URGENT GLOBAL EMERGENCY PRESS RELEASE 🔥
October 11, 2025 | Seoul, Republic of Korea
OPEN LETTER TO HIS EXCELLENCY PRESIDENT LEE JAE-MYUNG, THE PEOPLE OF KOREA, AND THE WORLD
Your Excellency,
Just 2 questions:
1. As Israelites were massacred for the last 2,000 years, paying indemnity just by sending the Prince of Peace Jesus to the cross—will the Korean people repeat the same mistake nowadays, permitting themselves, all their children, and future generations to suffer for thousands of years to come by sending the Mother of Peace, the wife of the Lord of the Second Advent, to court?
Or will all Koreans, from simple people to the president, get smart enough to stand this week to release Innocent Holy Mother Han, thus receiving Endless God's blessing for all their descendants forever!
2. Will The World permit themselves inaction, as were in Jesus' first coming, thus coffin in endless self-suicide wars for the last 2,000 years which still do not subside?
Or will all 8 billion+ people of the world, from simple people to presidents, Stand this week to Release Hak Ja Han Moon, embrace Korea, and together with God's Only Begotten Daughter, will finish Building the Ultimate Peace Kingdom this year Globally!
The Republic of Korea, once a beacon of democracy and religious freedom, now stands accused of orchestrating one of the most aggressive campaigns of spiritual suppression in its modern history. At the center of this crisis is Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon, the 83-year-old great-grandmother and co-founder of the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU), revered by millions globally as the “Mother of Peace.”
We, a thunderous global chorus of millions who cherish peace, faith, and fundamental human rights, address you today with profound alarm. We implore you to immediately end the state-sanctioned cruelty being inflicted upon Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon, the 83-year-old great-grandmother and world-renowned “Mother of Peace.”
Her illegal detention in the Seoul Detention Center on politically motivated charges has shocked the world’s conscience and plunged the Republic of Korea into a HISTORICAL CRISIS OF CONSCIENCE. The indictment on October 10, 2025, by Special Prosecutor Min Joong-ki on four specific charges, including violations of the Political Funds Act, Improper Solicitation and Graft Act, Instigation of Evidence Destruction, and Occupational Embezzlement (Chosun, Oct 10, 2025), is not a search for justice, but a deliberate purge disguised as a legal process—a "religiocide" against a voice of freedom.
A CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY: THE MEDICAL PERSECUTION OF DR. MOON
The physical and mental suffering imposed on Dr. Moon constitutes an act of grave medical negligence and a flagrant violation of human dignity. The Family Federation for World Peace has clearly stated that "Chairman Han is in very poor health due to her advanced age and chronic illness (recurrent arrhythmia, etc.), and there are serious concerns about her health deteriorating as she was indicted while under arrest."
The Heart-Wrenching Facts on October 11, 2025:
Just one week before her arrest in late September, this elderly, frail patient underwent critical heart procedure. Today, detained on the flimsy pretext of "tampering with evidence," her condition is deteriorating rapidly. Aides have reported urgent, visible signs of medical distress, including:
Excruciating pain causing her lips to turn blue.
Severe deterioration evident in dark circles under her eyes, dry skin, and a red face.
Her documented chronic illness (recurrent arrhythmia, etc.) is being critically ignored in custody, effectively constituting medical torture.
This detention is a direct attack on her most fundamental, inviolable rights under South Korean law.
Legal Violation Law/Article Violated Legal Mandate Violated by the State:
Human Dignity & Health Constitution, Article 10 "All citizens shall be assured of human dignity and worth and have the right to pursuit of happiness. It shall be the duty of the State to confirm and guarantee the fundamental and inviolable human rights of individuals." (The Supreme Mandate for Humanitarian Release)
Elder Abuse/Neglect Welfare of Senior Citizens Act, Article 2 (4) The law explicitly defines "Elder abuse" as any act of physical, mental, emotional, and sexual violence, and economic exploitation of, or atrocities against, or desertion or neglect of, older persons. Continuing detention of an 83-year-old sick person against medical advice falls under this definition of neglect and abuse.
Right to Health/Welfare Constitution, Article 36 (3) "All citizens shall be entitled to live in a healthy and pleasant environment." (Mandates the state to ensure a safe and healthy environment, severely breached by her detention in a prison environment post-cardiac surgery.)
Essential Release on Bail/Detention Rescission Criminal Procedure Act, Article 93 (Rescission of Detention) Allows the court to rescind detention when the reason for detention has ceased or detention is no longer necessary. Serious, life-threatening illness is a core reason for rescission.
Essential Release on Bail (Mandatory Consideration) Criminal Procedure Act, Article 95 Release on bail "shall be allowed" except in specific, limiting cases (e.g., flight risk, capital offense). For an elderly, stationary defendant, denying release based solely on a speculative "risk of evidence destruction" is a violation of the right to be free while awaiting trial.
We demand a mercy appeal be granted immediately. Her continued incarceration is a slow, agonizing crime against humanity.
THE PATTERN OF ILLEGAL PERSECUTION: A CONSTITUTIONAL SHAME
The actions of the Special Prosecutor’s office over the last six months have formed a deliberate, systematic assault on Dr. Moon, demonstrating a gross abuse of power that tears at the fabric of the Republic of Korea’s democracy.
1. The May 2025 Travel Restrictions: Violation of Movement
The application of an exit ban on Dr. Moon in May 2025, prior to any formal arrest or indictment, placed her under undue duress and was a gross violation of fundamental rights. News reports from May 2025 confirmed a travel ban on other former officials. Any pre-emptive ban on Dr. Moon represents the government using investigation to control the liberty of an un-indicted citizen.
Legal Violation Law/Article Violated Legal Mandate Violated by the State
Freedom of Movement Constitution, Article 14 "All citizens shall enjoy freedom of residence and the right to move at will." (An un-indicted, un-convicted citizen cannot be arbitrarily confined to the country.)
Imposing Travel Ban Illegally Immigration Act, Article 4 (Prohibition of Departure) The law requires clear grounds (e.g., subject to a criminal investigation, pending trial, or tax delinquency) for an exit ban. Imposing it without a clear, stated purpose on an elderly civilian is an overreach of the Minister of Justice's authority.
2. The Intimidating Raid and Coercive Interrogation
The use of overwhelming force and public intimidation is a grotesque abuse of the investigative process. The reported scale of the raid, followed by a grueling 10-hour interrogation on September 17, 2025 (The Hindu, Sept 18, 2025), just after her heart procedure, constitutes a clear case of official cruelty.
Legal Violation Law/Article Violated Legal Mandate Violated by the State:
Personal Liberty & Prohibition of Coercion Constitution, Article 12 (1) & (2) (1) "All citizens shall enjoy personal liberty..." and (2) "No citizen shall be tortured or be compelled to testify against himself or herself in criminal cases." (Coercive, extended interrogation of an 83-year-old post-op patient is a clear form of mental and medical torture, compelling self-incrimination through physical exhaustion.)
Protection from Illegal Search/Seizure Constitution, Article 16 "All citizens shall be free from infringement upon their privacy of residence. In the absence of a warrant issued by a judge... no house search or seizure shall be made." (The alleged excessive scale of force in the raid constitutes a violation of the spirit of the warrant process and an undue infringement on her private life.)
Special Consideration for the Elderly Criminal Procedure Act, Article 282 (Mandatory Defense Counsel) While concerning trial, this Article mandates defense counsel for a defendant who is 70 years of age or over—establishing a legal precedent for special consideration of the elderly which was violated by the prosecutor's strenuous questioning.
3. The Arrest & Indictment: Presumption of Guilt
The court's decision to issue an arrest warrant for the 82-year-old leader on September 22, 2025, was based on the single, speculative premise of a "risk that she could destroy evidence" (Al Jazeera, Sept 23, 2025). This basis for the continued detention of a globally respected, stationary spiritual leader makes a mockery of due process, as she has no history of flight and her mobility is severely limited.
Constitutional Violation Constitutional Article (Republic of Korea) Legal Mandate Violated by the State:
Presumption of Innocence Constitution, Article 27 (4) "The accused are presumed innocent until a judgment of guilt has been pronounced." (The prosecutor's entire approach has been to treat the defendant as guilty and a threat, violating the most sacred tenet of justice.)
Right to Freedom of Religion Constitution, Article 20 (1) & (2) (1) "All citizens shall enjoy freedom of religion." (2) "No State religion shall be recognized, and the State and religion shall be separated." (The targeting of the spiritual leader of FFWPU, using a political probe as a pretext, is an unconstitutional intrusion of the State into religious affairs and a clear act of religious persecution.)
THE GLOBAL UPRISING: A WORLD IN PRAYER AND SOLIDARITY 🙏
The world is not fooled. The spiritual mobilization for Dr. Han’s release is unprecedented and has been widely reported.
Current Facts of Global Solidarity (October 2025):
Vigil at Seoul Detention Center: Thousands of devoted followers are praying day and night at a 24/7 vigil outside the Seoul Detention Center in Uiwang, Gyeonggi Province. This massive, peaceful demonstration of faith is a testament to her innocence.
Global Prayer Chain: Hundreds of thousands more are praying globally in almost every country, a massive spiritual uprising that has been highlighted by international and local news channels as a rare global show of support for a Korean legal case.
Journalistic Investigations and Facts Supporting Dr. Han Moon (October 2025):
Church Denial of Charges & Rogue Official Defense: The Unification Church (Family Federation) has consistently and forcefully denied Han Hak Ja’s involvement, stating the alleged illegal actions were carried out solely by an arrested former church official (Yun Young-ho) and condemned her arrest as a "disrespectful act against an internationally respected religious leader" .
Targeted Political Prosecution: News coverage from September/October 2025 confirms Dr. Han's indictment is part of a larger, highly-charged political environment: one of three special prosecutor probes authorized by the current liberal government focusing on the previous conservative Yoon administration (The Guardian, Sept 23, 2025). This context reinforces the Family Federation's statement that this is a politically motivated "purge" (Family Federation statement, Oct 10, 2025), designed to cripple political opponents through association with the controversial FFWPU.
Global Leaders Speak on the Crisis (Recent Citations):
President Donald Trump: “WHAT IS GOING ON IN SOUTH KOREA? Seems like a Purge or Revolution. We can’t have that and do business there.” (August 2025)
Mike Pompeo, Former U.S. Secretary of State: “Deeply troubling… a betrayal of democratic principles. A nation that persecutes an 83-year-old woman of peace has lost its moral compass.” (The Washington Stand, October 2025)
Newt Gingrich, Former U.S. Speaker of the House: “This is suffocating political and religious suppression. It’s an attack on all people of faith.” (Fox News, September 2025)
Dr. Massimo Introvigne, Director, FOREF Europe: “This is not anti-corruption—it is a purge. A religiocide disguised as justice.” (Bitter Winter, October 2025)
Oh Kwang-soo, a former civil affairs chief, has publicly joined Dr. Han’s legal team, declaring he "cannot stand by while the nation's spiritual backbone is broken" (Korea JoongAng Daily, October 2025).
THE TRUTH THAT MUST BE REVEALED: A LEGACY OF BUILDING KOREA
The persecution of Dr. Han is an attack on the foundational identity of the Republic of Korea. The Unification Church (Family Federation), since its founding in Seoul on May 1, 1954, has been an engine of Korean prosperity and freedom, not a criminal enterprise.
The Unification Church's Historical Contribution to Korea and the World:
Anti-Communism and Patriotism: Founder Sun Myung Moon was imprisoned in a North Korean labor camp for five years. Following his release, the movement became a spiritual and economic bulwark for anti-communist South Korea, organizing a massive peaceful gathering of 1.2 million people in Yeouido in 1975 to bolster national spirit and resist North Korean aggression (Wikipedia, 1975).
Economic & Media Development: The church invested heavily in Korean media (like the Segye Times) and established essential educational institutions. Globally, it founded the respected The Washington Times in the US, providing a conservative counter-voice to global communism (UPI News).
Cultural Diplomacy: The church created The Little Angels Children's Folk Ballet of Korea, which has performed as a cultural embassy in over 60 nations, showcasing the beauty of Korean art and culture to the world and fostering positive international relations.
Pioneering Peace & Reconciliation: Dr. Han and her husband spearhead a vast, global network for peace, notably the Universal Peace Federation (UPF) and the Women’s Federation for World Peace (WFWP), both holding UN ECOSOC General Consultative Status. Her husband's 1991 meeting with President Kim Il-Sung in the DPRK was a historic, peace-seeking move that predated and promoted reconciliation on the peninsula, long before formal government channels could achieve it (The Korea Herald).
A MERCY APPEAL: RESTORE KOREA'S DIGNITY
This is a crossroads for the Republic of Korea. Your nation risks becoming a global pariah, its democratic gains overshadowed by the persecution of a sick, elderly woman. Her detention is a spiritual affront to the 8 billion children of God on this earth.
President Lee, Korea stands at a prophetic crossroads. Just as the Israelites once persecuted their Messiah Jesus, resulting in two millenniums of suffering, Korea risks similar indemnity by turning away from the representative of the Second Coming. Dr. Han’s mission is not political—it is divine. To imprison her is to pass to all Korea and the world indemnity and endless suffering for thousands of years ahead.
We call on you, President Lee Jae-myung, to honor the Constitution and embrace compassion:
Grant Immediate, Unconditional Release to Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon on urgent humanitarian and medical grounds, upholding Constitution Article 10 (Human Dignity) and the Welfare of Senior Citizens Act, Article 2 (4).
End All Politically Motivated Persecutions against religious organizations, upholding Constitution Article 20 (Freedom of Religion).
Ensure a Fair, Public Trial where the sacred principle of Presumption of Innocence (Article 27 (4)) is genuinely respected.
Prevent misunderstandings caused by distorted information from spreading; we ask that the media and all sectors of society promote a fair understanding based on facts and truth.
The only solution to ultimate peace is the Mother of Peace's Embrace. Do not allow the persecution of new religions to become a source of shame for all your future generations. Rise to this historical call for Ultimate Global Peace!
RELEASE IMMEDIATELY PRESIDENT LEE JAE-MYUNG! RELEASE HAK JA HAN MOON! RELEASE KOREA!
With urgent hope and unwavering respect,
Nicolae Cirpala
President, Global Peace Building Network (GPBNet) | Happy TV News +79056333606
