The trajectory
The record since
The call stands as issued — no revisions.
What would overturn it
A formal indictment filing against either suspect; the counter-signal would be the case remaining under investigation past 60 days, e.g. because it widens into a larger network.
The verdict
Hit Resolved 12 Oct 26.
Pyeongtaek branch of Suwon District Prosecutors indicted both former Chinese military men ~Sept 29, inside the 60-day window.
As logged at issue
It's likely South Korean prosecutors formally indict at least one of this week's two arrested Chinese nationals within 60 days, continuing the faster charge-to-conviction cadence seen in this year's earlier espionage cases -- unless the investigation uncovers a wider network that delays charges.
