Global Faith Leader Summoned By South Korean Prosecutors In Escalating Case Against Religion

SEOUL, South Korea, and WASHINGTON, Sept. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- President Demian Dunkley: "We stand with the Mother of Peace, Dr. Hak Ja Han, the Holy Mother Han" The Family Federation for World Peace and Unification International strongly denounces today's summons of the Mother of Peace, Dr. Hak Ja Han by South Korea's Special Prosecutor.

"This is not a neutral investigation. This is persecution," said President Demian Dunkley. "We stand with the Mother of Peace, Dr. Hak Ja Han, the Holy Mother Han. Her integrity and lifelong sacrifice for humanity shine brighter than any accusation."

Dr. Han, now in her eighties, is one of the foremost female religious leaders in the world. For decades she has worked to uplift families, reconcile nations, and advance peace across continents. Millions regard her as a spiritual mother. To see her treated as a suspect is, in Dunkley's words, "an offense to decency, democracy, and the very principle of freedom of religion."

The prosecution's case relies heavily on the word of a disgraced former member who was expelled from the movement for misconduct. "How can Korea, a democratic nation, base its accusations on such tainted testimony?" Dunkley asked. "This is not justice. This is the weaponization of law against faith."

The Family Federation calls on faith leaders, elected officials, and people of conscience around the world not merely to pray but to act — to speak out, write to representatives, rally communities, and demand that Korea uphold the universal right of religious freedom.

"The eyes of the world are watching Korea today," Dunkley emphasized. "History will remember who stood silently — and who stood up."

Rev. Demian Dunkley, President Family Federation USA is available for interviews upon request.
