The week has begun to determine the fate of Attorney General Yoon Seok-yeol.
A decision is expected this week on whether the order to suspend Mr. Yoon’s performance of duties is valid and whether to remove him.
The first gate is the stay of execution interrogation held at the Seoul Administrative Court this morning.
If President Yoon’s claim to suspend his suspension from office is cited, he can immediately return to office, but otherwise, Minister Choo Mi-ae’s disciplinary claim is expected to strengthen.
The court’s decision is expected to come out today and tomorrow at the latest.
Then, tomorrow morning, there will be an extraordinary meeting of the Inspection Commission of the Ministry of Justice.
Minister Chu recently changed the relevant regulations so that a disciplinary committee can be held without consulting the supervisory committee, but when the controversy grew, he finally decided to open it.
Of course, the judgment of the Supervisory Commission is not legally binding, but raising concerns about Minister Chu’s actions can be a heavy burden.
Then, the following day (2) afternoon, the Disciplinary Commission of Prosecutors of the Ministry of Justice is scheduled.
The six disciplinary members appointed or commissioned by Minister Chu can decide the level of disciplinary action, such as dismissal, dismissal, or salary reduction by majority vote.
It is known that it has not been decided whether President Yoon will attend the disciplinary committee that day and reveal his position.
If removal is decided, the final decision is made by President Moon Jae-in, the person who has the right to appoint and remove at the request of the minister.
The President, who has cherished the conflict between the Minister of Justice and the Attorney General, has no choice but to make a decision somehow, and the interest is focused on how the week of the fate that has risen will end.
Then we will connect journalists to get more information.
The court’s interrogation procedure to determine whether Attorney General Yoon Seok-yeol, who had been excluded by Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae, has ended.
General Yoon argued that it was a matter of political neutrality for the prosecution beyond irreparable personal injury, and Minister Chu faced that the return was not effective as discipline was scheduled to be imposed two days later.

The judicial hearing process lasted for about an hour.
Legal representatives attended instead of the parties, right?
[기자]The Seoul Administrative Court conducted an interrogation on the stay of execution for one hour starting at 11 a.m. today.
Minister Chu and President Yoon did not appear in person at today’s trial.
On behalf of Yun, attorney Lee Wan-gyu and other legal representatives attended, and on behalf of Minister Chu, on behalf of Justice Minister Park Eun-jeong as well as legal representatives such as Lee Ok-hyung.
Stay of enforcement is a court decision to temporarily stay enforcement of the provision prior to the lawsuit to cancel the provision, which is the main lawsuit, if there is concern about damage that is difficult to recover.
The results are available from the day and you can go back to work as soon as your application is accepted.
After questioning, President Yoon said that he had urged the court to consider the illegality of the procedure and irreparable damage to the state system and the people.
On the other hand, Minister Chu said that if the disciplinary committee decides whether or not to take disciplinary action, it does not enter into the requirement of suspending the execution as it will disappear.
Let’s listen.
[이완규 변호사 / 윤석열 총장 측 대리인 : 윤석열 총장 개인에 관한 문제이기도 하지만, 검찰의 정치적 중립성이나 독립성과 관련된 국가 시스템에 관한 문제이기도 합니다. 회복할 수 없는 손해라는 점에서….] [이옥형 변호사 / 추미애 장관 측 대리인 : 12월 2일이면 새로운 처분이 있어서 직무집행정지 명령이 실효됩니다. 이틀 후면 실효되는데 이틀 후에 실효될 것을 지금 시급하게, 긴급하게 정지할 필요성이 없는 것입니다.] [앵커]Even if the court raises Mr. Yun’s hand, the deliberation of the disciplinary committee the day after tomorrow is expected to be another obstacle in determining Mr. Yoon’s fate.
[기자]On the 2nd of the month following Moiraine, Minister Chu set the deadline for a disciplinary review of President Yun.
Even if the court accepts the request for a stay of execution today, if severe disciplinary action, such as dismissal from the disciplinary committee, is approved, President Yoon will have no choice but to withdraw.
However, the disciplinary committee may also face a burden if the judiciary ceases the effect of the exclusion of President Yoon’s duties today.
On the contrary, if the court rejects the request for stay of execution, it is expected that the possibility of severe disciplinary action will be further strengthened.
The inspection committee, which will be held before the disciplinary committee, is also a variable.
The prosecutors, who rebelled against the “approval of the supervisory committee” of Minister Chu, decided to call an emergency meeting tomorrow at 10 am, the day before the disciplinary committee.
The inspectors’ decision is not legally binding, but if the prosecution itself is found to be unfair, it is likely to affect disciplinary action.
[앵커]Before the prosecution and discipline commission yesterday, the prosecutor of the Ministry of Justice, who was in charge of General Yoon’s prosecution, revealed that there was a problem with the investigation request process.
[기자]The prosecutor of the Prosecutor’s Office of the Ministry of Justice, who directly investigated the suspicion of Judge Yoon, the prosecution, published a disclosure article on the internal network of the prosecution.
He stated in the report that the legal review did not constitute a crime, but claimed that this part was removed without explanation.
On the other hand, the Ministry of Justice refuted that such fact did not exist, and that the report made by this prosecutor was in the file.
In the process of investigating the temple’s suspicion, a controversy over the law arose.
The Supreme Prosecutor’s Office was in communication with the Ministry of Justice in advance to carry out an investigation, and during the seizure and search process it was suspected that he was actually under the direction of the Ministry of Justice without informing the interim president of the office.
In response, the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office explained that it made a brief incident report to the Minister of Justice as the addressee in accordance with the Fiscal Report Regulations.
In addition, it was suspected that the team leader of the 3rd Prosecutor’s Office was excluded from the execution of the seizure search after objecting to the fact that he was unable to access the seizure and search.
In response, the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office asked them to decide freely and explained that they respected the doctor after hearing the absent answer.
[앵커]In the midst of this, Acting President Cho Nam-gwan also asked Minister Chu to reconsider the provision against Yoon.
[기자]Attorney General Nam-gwan Cho, acting as acting prosecutor, published a post on Eprus, the internal prosecution network.
This is the title of asking Minister Chu to step back for the cause of prosecution reform.
Acting Cho said it doesn’t matter how good the laws and systems are, even if they don’t win the hearts of members of the prosecution and make them the object of reform.
In particular, he noted that most prosecutors, including himself, are convinced that the president has not committed serious misdemeanors or crimes sufficiently to be expelled from office.
He called on the prosecution to withdraw the measure, saying that if this measure is implemented as is, it will generate hostile opposition to members of the prosecution and the reform of the prosecution could be in vain.
Deputy Prosecutor Cho was promoted to the prosecutor’s office under Minister Chu and was promoted to Deputy Prosecutor of Great Fencing.
Executive-level prosecutors in the Justice Ministry also protested.
About 10 prosecutors from the Justice Ministry delivered a letter of protest through Deputy Justice Minister Koki-young Koki when they were unable to meet with Chu this morning.
They are reported to have expressed concern that Minister Chu is ignoring the prosecution procedure and generating controversy about the illegal law, such as directly investigating and directing the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office on illegal court inspections.
To date, 18 district attorneys and 40 offices across the country have participated in the prosecutor’s statement review, and the last remaining Western Busan branch is said to announce the prosecutor’s position soon.
