In connection with allegations that prosecutors forced false statements during the bribery case of former Prime Minister Han Myung-sook, all key witness prosecution statutes will expire within this month. Since the Supreme Swordsman is practically innocent of the allegations, some observers say that Justice Minister Park Beom-gye could redistribute the case or exercise command of the investigation. Reporter Lim Seong-ho reports. Former Prime Minister Han Myung-sook was charged with receiving illegal political funding of 900 million won from former Han Man-ho Chief Executive Officer Shin Kun-young Han and sentenced to two years in prison at the Supreme Court in 2015. Subsequently, in April last year, a complaint was filed with the Ministry of Justice that the prosecution had forced the witnesses in the former prime minister’s case to make false statements. At that time, the investigation team asked Han Man-ho, fellow inmates, Kim Mo and Choi Mo, who came out as witnesses to the trial, to make a statement against former Prime Minister Han. They went to court to testify in March 2011. The prosecution statute for perjury for perjury for the purpose of harming others is 10 years, so Choi’s prosecution statute was until yesterday, and Mr. Kim’s prosecution statute expires on the 22nd. In particular, Mr. Choi is also a person who filed a complaint directly with the Ministry of Justice upon raising the suspicion of a master of perjury by the prosecution. However, the Great Swordsman concluded that the two men were not charged with perjury, and prosecutors at the time were charged as masters of perjury. There is insufficient evidence to show whether the witnesses actually committed perjury and whether the prosecution’s investigation team committed perjury. Researcher Im Eun-jeong, who claimed to have been excluded from the job while investigating the matter, said it was not surprising because it was a fixed conclusion and rejected it as an irrational decision. In addition, former Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae also criticized the prosecution for blatantly wrapping my family, and there are also protests from passport officials. With the Supreme Swordsman’s no-charge conclusion, attention is also being paid to the actions of Justice Minister Park Beom-gye, who has supported the new investigation. Minister Park granted investigative powers within the appointment of Chief Prosecutor Im Eun-jeong as central prosecutor, and when former President Yoon Seok-yeol excluded Investigator Lim from the post, he expressed regret. For this reason, some observers have observed that Park may be reassigned in the case or may initiate an investigative command instructing the prosecution of those involved.
