Future Integration Party lawmaker Shin Won-sik held a press conference at the National Assembly Communications Hall in Yeouido, Seoul, on the morning of the 2nd, and posted a transcript of Captain A’s call regarding to the vacation of the son of the Minister of Justice Chu Mi-ae. ./News1 © Noticias1 The ruling party claimed that the phone call was true on the 4th, but that it was not preferential treatment amid suspicions that it was a phone call to the unit by assistant minister Chu to extend the military leave for the son of the Minister of Justice Chu Mi-ae.
Seo’s son, Chu’s son, has been on vacation for a total of 58 days (28 days of love, 11 days of special leave, 19 days of sick leave) after serving as a KATUSA soldier for 21 months since November 2016, when he was also the leader of the Democratic Party. KATUSA soldiers can use the 28th annual leave, and special leave or sick leave is left to the discretion of the commander, but suspicion of preferential treatment has been raised as Seo’s sick leave record is not left in the military leave list data.
In particular, the problem is that after Seo underwent knee surgery at Seoul Samsung Hospital in June 2017, he continued to use his first and second sick leave without returning from vacation and did not return for two days after who ended sick leave. The People’s Power affirms that during this process, the then adviser to Minister Chu asked about the extension of sick leave.
Minister Chu insisted that there was no fact that an aide called the unit. He said at the plenary meeting of the Special Committee on Budget and Accounting of the National Assembly on the 1st, when asked by Rep. Yoo Sang-beom: “Is there any fact that an attendee has asked the military to deal with the sick leave? ” The child was operated on and there is a reason for sick leave. “Seo’s side has also stated through his lawyer that” everything is false. ”
Then on the 2nd, the People’s Power released a transcript of a call from Captain A, an officer who received a phone call from Assistant Minister Chu requesting an extension of Seo’s sick leave. According to the transcript, Captain A answered “yes” to the question: ‘Did the aide at the time of Congressman Chu make a phone call to extend sick leave, Seo?’ “I was wondering why the assistant should do this. The role of the assistant itself is to help the members of the National Assembly. “
As a result, the ruling party was faced with the fact that the currency itself was inappropriate but did not have preferential treatment. He also argued that the opposition offensive was an attempt to hinder the reform of the prosecution service.
Democratic Party lawmaker Kim Nam-guk said in an interview on MBC radio that day: “I checked through the Ministry of Defense, but it seems to be true that I made a phone call.” “It is inappropriate to say that an assistant made a call, but it is not subject to external pressure.”
Representative Kim said: “I am not speaking directly to the Lieutenant Colonel, who is the authority to approve (vacations), for reasons that cannot be seen as outside pressure. The support officer (received by phone call) said: “It was a civil complaint investigation asking if I could just use sick leave or extend sick leave.”
Furthermore, he said, “Because it was made with a love song that can be written, it is not possible to have external pressure.”
Democratic Party legislator Hong Ik-pyo said in an interview with YTN radio: “I have been an officer at the military base and there are many such cases. It seems that the administrative process of the sick leave order is omitted. “For the rest, all relevant records remain. Looking at the results of the prosecution’s investigation, whether there is any responsibility for the minister, he said.
The Supreme Commissioner of the Democratic Party, Kim Jong-min, faced the offensive of the opposition party, saying: “We are trying to shake up the prosecution reforms promoted by Minister Chu.”
Supreme Commissioner Kim said, “Even if the people of the Republic of Korea are not under the control of influential politicians, there are military regulations that allow everyone to take vacations or take sick leave if walking is difficult due to surgery.” Not just to torment, but to torment all the mothers who sent (restriction) to the South Korean army. “
According to Congressman Shin, Captain A attended the Seoul Eastern District District Attorney’s Office as a reference to the District Attorney’s Office, which is investigating the suspicion that Mr. Seo did not return from military leave. “Can you handle the sick leave?”
Captain A responded to the assistant’s request that “it is not allowed to take a break at home according to the regulations.” Delivered.
Chu’s assistant, suspected of calling Captain A, is working in a secretary’s office at the Blue House.
A key member of the Blue House said: “If you are not at the secretary level, you have not disclosed your name or place of work.”
