On the 3rd, Attorney General Yoon Seok-yeol again criticized the decision to establish a felony investigation office (heavy water office). The so-called ‘full prosecution’ (total deprivation of the prosecution’s right to investigate) is expressed as ‘completely deprived of corruption’ (completely exhausted corruption), and repeatedly expressed a will to oppose attempts to steal the prosecution’s right to investigate . After the press interview and the announcement of the position that was released the day before, the interpretation is that “they decided to take a political response while continuing the battle of public opinion”, in the sense that they even made a public comment in the site of your visit. Daegu High School and the district attorney’s office.
In particular, when it comes to the possibility of entering the political world, as in the case of the audit of the state administration in October last year, he left a space by once again avoiding immediate responses. They have yet to draw a line with any suspicions that they will enter politics after they step down from the post of general.
President Yoon met with reporters at the Daegu High School and District Attorney’s Office meeting this afternoon and said, “The so-called ‘full inspection’ that is underway is a ‘corruption correction’, which it is a great violation of the constitutional spirit. I think it’s a matter of resigning ”. Through an interview with the media reported the day before, he expressed his opinion of “opposing the establishment of a heavy water bureau” with somewhat fierce comments such as “democratizing the rule of law and destroying the constitutional spirit” and “absurd legislation and rope”. . However, on this day, not only was the water level counted more, but the speaking method commonly used by politicians was also used. It deserves to be called ‘Declaration of Yun Seok-yeol in Daegu’.
General Yoon again voiced his opposition to the “separation of investigation and prosecution.” He emphasized that “responding energetically to corruption in all areas of politics, the economy and society is to protect the people and is a constitutional duty of the State and the Government.” “Responding to corruption is only possible when the investigation, which is the trial preparation process, and the activities of the judicial trial are organically integrated, because it is necessary to respond to the rule of law in accordance with the principles of due process, guaranteeing the right to defense, and tribunal. “He insisted. This means that the investigation and prosecution must be merged to face corruption crimes.
It is unusual to see the statements of the acting attorney general, and it is assessed that some people feel the appearance of ‘politician Yoon Seok-yeol’, with President Yoon using primary colors or terms that can only be used in politics. It is rare for high-ranking public officials to openly confront issues under discussion between the government and the National Assembly through “press games” and “wars of public opinion.” Daegu Mayor Kwon Young-jin, a member of the people’s power, appeared at the location of the Daegu High School and District Prosecutors Orientation Visit, which is an internal prosecution event, and welcomed Yun . Supporters of the ruling and opposition parties mingled, reminiscent of politicians’ campaigns.
That day, President Yoon answered the question: “If there is a request for political power, will you be willing to do politics?” In addition, he avoided an immediate response, saying: “It is difficult to say that at this time” to the question “Would you resign as president general if the promotion of the bill of the Heavy Water Administration is fulfilled.” Although the possibility of entering the political world remains open, the future movement remains as a question mark.
Reactions inside and outside the prosecution are diverse and complex. A lawyer for the prosecution said: “Recently, President Yun would not know what a single interview with a specific outlet would look like or express opinions against government policy on an official stage.” a heavy water bureau without a clear justification, “It’s bitter because I decided I had no choice but to lean on public opinion when telling the content.” A prosecution executive said: “It is said to be for the prosecution organization, but Mr. Yun’s recent words and actions are not the appearance of the attorney general that we have seen so far, but he is unfamiliar.” “He said.
