SEOUL, Sept. 11 (Yonhap) -- Prosecutors on Friday rejected police's request to file for an arrest warrant for independent lawmaker Kim Byung-kee over various allegations of misconduct and called for a supplementary investigation, saying the police have failed to sufficiently explain the need to place him in custody.
