SEOUL, July 28 (Yonhap) -- A joint prosecution-police team investigating suspected collusion between politics and religion allegedly secured a statement four months ago that followers of the Shincheonji Church of Jesus, a nonmainstream religious sect, had been urged to join both the main opposition People Power Party (PPP) and the ruling Democratic Party (DP), legal sources said Tuesday.
