Candlelight resistance of the people is intensified in the Republic of Korea to impeach puppet Yoon Suk Yeol at any cost, who is desperately resorting to fascist dictatorship, war exercises and murderous maladministration, following outside forces.

The 91st candlelight rally and demonstration took place in Seoul on the 25th under the theme "Let's Impeach Yoon Suk Yeol, Enemy of the People Refusing to Adopt Special Prosecution System!".

Lots of people from different places including workers, peasants, students, housewives, old persons and children with their parents turned out in the large-scale candlelight struggle for the impeachment of puppet Yoon Suk Yeol.

What is noteworthy is that before the candlelight rally on the day, national assemblymen from opposition parties including the Minju Party and over 110 civic and public organizations staged a large-scale protest action in Seoul, condemning Yoon Suk Yeol who refuses to invoke the law on special prosecution concerning the incident of a marine of the puppet army of the Republic of Korea who died a grievous death on the 21st.

The participants in the action condemned Yoon Suk Yeol for refusing to invoke the law on special prosecution concerning the death of the marine to hinder probe into the truth and cover up the crime.

They said this alone tells the reason why Yoon Suk Yeol should be impeached and added that the people scathingly denounce and warn Yoon who is wielding his power and exercising only veto in disregard of their will and the "People Power Party" which is patronizing him.

They called on the people from all walks of life to join in the struggle against Yoon Suk Yeol applying himself to war drills and threatening the lives and security of the people and his accomplice "People Power Party".

Speakers at the rally held after the action said the longer Yoon Suk Yeol keeps on dictatorship, giving everything to the outside forces as their loyal dog to stay in power, the greater misfortunes and pains the people will suffer. They stressed the need to oust puppet Yoon Suk Yeol from his office at once.

Read out at the rally was an appeal for the impeachment of Yoon Suk Yeol.

The appeal said the people already passed a final sentence on Yoon Suk Yeol through the judgment in the general election and emphasized that they will kindle a new torch for his impeachment across the country with the same spirit and will of the candlelight struggle against Park Geun Hye's dictatorship.

The participants in the rally held a symbolic ceremony of tearing a large suspension poster with the pictures of Yoon Suk Yeol and his wife.

Media of the Republic of Korea reported on the struggle of the people of broad stripes under different titles including "Outcries of Candlelight Struggle--Let's Impeach Yoon Suk Yeol with the Might of Candlelight Resistance". They said the further Yoon Suk Yeol exercises his veto by abusing power, the further the candlelight resistance of the people of different circles will be intensified to refuse and impeach him at any cost.
