Starting in January of next year, the Criminal Procedure Law will come into force, granting the police the right to terminate the investigation, and the autonomous police system and the national investigation headquarters will also start one after another.
On the afternoon of the 16th, Justice Minister Chu Mi-ae, National Intelligence Service Director Park Ji-won, and Public Administration and Security Minister Jin-young held a joint briefing on the reform of energy agencies. at the Seoul Government Complex and announced the plan. Police Commissioner Kim Chang-ryong also held a separate briefing at the National Police Agency.
The briefing was prepared in accordance with the promulgation and implementation of amendments to the National Intelligence Service Law, amendments to the Police Law, including the establishment of the National Investigation Headquarters (noodle version), as well as the amendment to the Law on the National Intelligence Service, and the transfer of authority from the National Intelligence Service to the police.
At the briefing, Director Park said: “There will be absolutely no political intervention by the NIS. We will cooperate until the end to uncover the truth so that suspicions related to the NIS, such as the Democratization Movement of May 18, the ferry Sewol, the case of comments and civil inspections, do not arise again. ” Emphasized.
There are concerns about whether the police can adequately exercise the anti-aircraft powers that the NIS has provided.
Previously, Director Park said: “Some are concerned that the transfer of investigation right will be suspended or destroyed again in three years, but we will cooperate and talk with the police to ensure that the anti-aircraft right is transferred completely and smoothly.” . I will make it irreversible, ”he said.
On this day, Commissioner Kim explained in detail about the autonomous police system, which will take shape from next July. Commissioner Kim said, “It is the most realistic plan that takes into account current security conditions, public benefits and the financial situation of state and local governments,” and said, “The long road from police reform to democratization and neutralization of the police has finally paid off with the institutionalization of the law. “It was evaluated.
However, concerns do arise, which are somewhat different from what the government initially pursued. Initially, the government promoted the ‘dualization model’ in which the autonomous police status was completely separate from the national police, with the status of local government officials belonging to local governments. However, in the process of gathering opinions from various spheres, the status of all police officers as state officials was maintained, and the transfers of personnel between the autonomous police and the state police were the same as before, but the functions were only divided.
