Once again, the legal profession is being shaken by the issue of Justice Minister Chu Miae. This is because the Ministry of Justice and the Seoul Senior Prosecutor’s Office took different positions on whether Minister Chu made his first official position on the corona19 infection situation in the East Seoul Detention Center, and whether the The prosecutor’s son was reinvestigating the military leave charges.
Chu Mi-ae “Crown spread in the eastern detention center, I am very sorry”
First, Minister Choo Mi-ae said on his Facebook page on the 1st: “As the Minister of Justice, who is in charge of correcting the spread of the crown at the East Seoul Detention Center, I am very sorry to have caused people concern. “
He said: “Infectious diseases like the crown first destroy the most vulnerable part of our society (omitted). In legal administration, the usual weak part will be revealed,” he said. “It is the overcrowding of the camps that is very fatal in the case of large-scale infectious diseases.”
He then explained the progress of the situation confirmed by corona19 in the Eastern Detention Center. First, Minister Chu said: “The East Seoul Detention Center conducted an inspection with an expert on December 25. It is presumed that the cause of the rapid group infection was a new prisoner who is mainly an asymptomatic infected person after the third pandemic “. However, he said, “before, after quarantining new prisoners for 14 days, we have been forced to comply with the marriage acceptance procedure,” he said. “However, even if a confirmed person has no symptoms, it will not leak, so the possibility of spread from this remains.”
He continued: “Experts advised me to separate confirmed and unconfirmed patients and reduce housing density to avoid further spread,” he said. “After designating the East Seoul Detention Center as a live treatment facility, it will be reorganized into a facility that accepts confirmed patients.” We plan to transfer undiagnosed individuals to other correctional institutions and separate them. “” We will extend probation. for exemplary prisoners and we will carry out follow-up work to lower prison density as soon as possible by simultaneously suspending executions, “he added.
In his article, Minister Chu emphasized that the detention center is a very vulnerable structure to infectious diseases due to the spatial and operational characteristics of the detention center, and that improvement is needed in the future. Unlike prisons, detention centers are not only the frequent entry and exit of new prisoners, but the East Seoul Detention Center is a high-rise building and has poor ventilation, making it very vulnerable to infectious diseases.
At the end of the article, he said: “As Minister of Justice, I will do everything possible to prevent the spread of the crown until the end of my term,” he said. “I worry one more time and I’m sorry.”
