Two of the three employees of the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy were arrested on suspicion of early closure of the Wolseong 1 nuclear power plant, which was suspected of erasing the nuclear power plant data prior to the audit. As the prosecution’s investigations gained momentum, investigations into alleged superiors, including former Industry Minister Baek Un-gyu and the Blue House, are expected to accelerate. This is Lee Sang-gon. Two people were arrested, including the director of the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy and the secretary, who were charged with erasing or giving instructions to the data of the Wolseong No. 1 Nuclear Power Plant. It has been more than a month since the prosecution began the investigation. The Daejeon District Court conducted a substantive examination of the warrants one by one and decided his arrest within nine hours. The judges said they were denying the crime and concerned about the destruction of evidence, and stated the reasons for issuing a warrant. Together, the supervisory officer who was questioned prior to the arrest was fired with a warrant and avoided arrest. The judge explained the reason for the dismissal, saying that the suspect generally admits the crime and that it is difficult to say that there is concern about the destruction of evidence or the leak. The defendants used internal corridors that were not exposed to the outside and were subject to a thorough examination of the order without meeting with reporters. The charges against them include damage to public electronic records and violations of the Auditor’s Office Act. Earlier, the auditor said they had entered the government’s Sejong office in the middle of the night before the auditor’s investigation in December last year and destroyed more than 400 data from the Wolseong No. 1 Nuclear Power Plant. Since then, last month, the Daejeon District Prosecutor’s Office seized and searched the Korean Ministry of Industry and Hydroelectric and Nuclear Energy, and then called the relevant public officials to investigate. As recruits are secured for Ministry of Industry officials, the prosecution’s investigation is expected to accelerate. In the future, the prosecution’s investigation will likely focus on what materials employees have removed for concealment. The prosecution is paying attention to the fact that last year, the request of the auditor of nuclear power plants excluded documents reported to the presidential secretary by the Ministry of Industry. Finally, we plan to verify whether the Blue House was involved in the “decision to close the Wolseong nuclear power plant prematurely” process. To this end, a subpoena investigation is expected to follow from those responsible at the time of the decision to shut down the nuclear power plant early, including former Industry Minister Baek Un-gyu and Che Hee-bong, then Secretary for Policy.
