The Minister of Justice, Chu Mi-ae, answers a question about the government held in the National Assembly on the 14th and answers questions about his son’s supposed vacation. That day, Minister Chu wept several times while answering. [김호영 기자] The ruling and opposition parties fought a heated battle on the 14th, the first day of questioning the regular National Assembly government, on suspicion of a ‘preferential vacation’ as the 27-year-old son of the Minister of Justice, Chu Miae, he was in the army. Minister Chu denied all suspicions related to his son’s sick leave and request for self-deployment. Regarding the suspicion of requesting the selection of interpreters, he made a statement with the intention that he would not have the opportunity because he is the minister’s son. On the other hand, the first opposition party, the Popular Power, argued that although the holidays were extended by telephone and then administratively processed, according to the precedent of the Supreme Court, it was considered as’ departure from military affairs (descape ) ‘.
Representative Jeon Joo-hye, a member of the people’s power, criticized the government as “a desertion and an opportunity for the mother”, referring to the Supreme Court precedents on the government issue. According to the 1986 Supreme Court ruling upheld by former lawmakers, the judge said: “If you do not return home after leaving public service without good reason, it is presumed that the purpose of avoiding military service was to avoid other circumstances.” . Said. The Judiciary also ruled: “There is no data in the file that supposedly has the permission of the unit commander,” and said: “Even if the day after not returning to the unit is not a business day, this is only a situation after the end of the crime of leaving military service “. Minister Chu rebelled against this and said, “Please refrain from desertion terms. You are seriously damaging your son’s honor.” Minister Chu said: “(Son) is a boy who studied sports management and has the ability to do enough. There is no reason to ask. Rather, I think I am my son.” I also found out this time that I checked it, it I changed from the original normal form and abandoned it in batches. “In response, Congressman Park Soo-young asked,” Do you mean to say that the military has unfairly discriminated against you? “Minister Chu said,” Common sense, there must have been a standard for staffing. “Is hard to understand.” When Congressman Park pointed out, “At that time, the colonel said there were so many requests for the minister’s son,” he laughed uproariously and said, “I am not a calm enough person to ask for an application.” Lee Tae-gyu, a member of the National Assembly Party, also lobbied Minister Chu to ask if he would resign from office if the illegal application was revealed.
Regarding the request for self-deployment, Minister Chu said, “Since a total of four soldiers and two parents make a decision on the spot and report randomly, there is no possibility that the request is involved.” He denied that “my mother-in-law, who is ninety years old, was hardly ill because she wanted to see her grandson who had finished training. It is anti-human and impossible to admonish such a person so that he does not directly ask for 40 minutes.” . Minister Chu again insisted that he had never instructed his assistant to put a phone in the military unit. However, he added, “I cannot afford to say anything, as there are continuing suspicions as to whether the royal aide called or for what reason.”
Minister Chu answered the day’s questions and was confused. Minister Chu wept to the point of saying, “I am a son who has never properly played the role of mother” and “I hope unilaterally to understand my mother’s situation.” Even after my son was released from the hospital after undergoing surgery, he cried and said, “I’m sorry (for extending my son’s sick leave), but I was so busy that I couldn’t answer correctly.” Regarding the suspicion that his daughter Seo Mo submitted an application to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the process of issuing a student visa, Minister Chu said: “Before the start of school, I inquired through an assistant about the way to go before the visa was not available. ” Because of this, it is not requested. ”
In the midst of this, the Civil Rights Commission decided that prosecutors’ investigation into the alleged preferential treatment of Choo’s son was difficult to see as a conflict of interest. Kwon Ik-wi said: “Although Minister Chu is a private stakeholder with his son, it is considered that there is no specific employment relationship.” In addition, the KFTC responded to the question, “Is Officer B, who raised the suspicion of preferential license, is a public interest reporter?” It said, “The public interest reporter is not a concept stipulated in law.” It doesn’t even apply to that. ”
Meanwhile, the prosecution summoned his son Seo at the end of last week. The prosecution also investigated Choi Mo, a former assistant to Minister Chu, who is suspected of calling the military units to inquire about the extension of Seo’s sick leave. The first division of the Seoul Eastern District Prosecutor’s Office announced on the day that “Subpoenas and investigations were carried out on the case of accusation of sick leave of the son of Minister Chu on the 12th and Seo on the 13th.” Seo, who is the defendant, was subpoenaed to the prosecution for eight months after being charged in January this year. Seo and former assistant Choi are known to have denied all allegations in the prosecution’s investigation.
