Democratic Party lawmaker Lee Tan-hee criticized the media on the 24th, saying, “Please treat him properly,” about the media that even politically challenged the “indictment of the judicial Nongdan judges.”
The day before, he held a press conference with Family Council 4.16 and 4.16 Solidarity and announced that he would continue with impeachment proceedings for Judge Im Seong-geun, who intervened at the 7:00 am Sewol ferry, and Judge Lee Dong-geun, who changed the judgment in his direction. The court told Judge Seong-geun Lim, who was handed over to trial for this matter, saying: “The charge of abuse of power is innocent, but the intervention itself is unconstitutional.” Representative Lee Tan-hee and others argued that the two judges should be held responsible for violating the Constitution due to the indictment of the two judges (related article: The strange ‘Sewol 7 hours’ trial, it turned out that it was a non-judicial)
However, unfortunately, on the afternoon of the press conference, the first judgment of the trial was issued by Cho Kook-shim, former spouse of the Minister of Justice, Dongyang University professor Chung Kyung-shim. On the one hand, the criticism of the ruler and the accusations of the legislator Lee Tan-hee about the impeachment of a judge were combined and evaluated when “the Democratic Party shakes even the independence of the judiciary.” In addition to the court’s criticism of Samsung Electronics Vice President Lee Jae-yong from the same party representative Park Yong-jin, there was an article that read: “He sent a warning signal to the judges to ‘pass judgment on the taste of the government and the ruling party. ‘”
On the 24th, Representative Lee Tan-hee expressed her frustration through a post on Facebook. He emphasized that “the ‘Judge Nongdan’ indictment and the ‘Judge’s Trial’ evaluation are independent.” “You may not have already forgotten the ‘trial deal’ that brought tears of blood to the eyes of the victims of conscription, the KTX crew and the Sewol ferry family. If you have not forgotten their tears of blood, the impeachment of the judges will be promoted for partisan purposes. You should not dismiss it as “work”.
Representative Lee added, “The judicial nongdan and the court settlement are too important to be consumed in that way.” He also said: “After waiting half a year after the formation of the 21st National Assembly, the actual victims of the court settlement came out themselves,” he said. “I have been asking for the impeachment of the judges every day since May 2019, when judicial discipline was canceled.”
