The Minister of Justice has exercised the authority to direct investigations against the Attorney General only three times in the history of the constitution. Among them, Minister Choo Mi-ae ordered the exclusion of Attorney General Yoon Seok-yeol in six separate investigations, but some point to the possibility of abuse of authority. Reporter Jo Sung-ho. The first time in the history of the constitution was the Minister of Justice Chun Jeong-bae in 2005 who initiated the command of the investigation. We were unable to reduce the disagreement with the indictment of prosecutors to investigate the arrest and investigation of Dongguk University professor Kang Jeong-gu, who was charged with violating the National Security Law. Minister Chun ordered the disability investigation, and then-Attorney General Kim Jong-bin resigned in protest after accepting command. And after 15 years, Minister Choo Mi-ae took command of the investigation again. After excluding Attorney General Yoon Seok-yeol in the ‘Channel A Suspected Attempt of Force’ investigation in July, he ordered the exclusion of the president’s command linking five cases, including those related to Lime and Yoon’s family and entourage cases. , in three months. Twice within nine months of the inauguration, they exercised command of the minister in six separate cases. There was a critical voice in the legal world. In addition to pointing out that the minister intervened excessively in the investigation, many opinions were concerned about the damage to the political neutrality of the prosecution. Attorney Wan-gyu Lee, who served as the head of the Bucheon District Attorney’s Office in the Incheon District Attorney’s Office, noted that the minister appears to act as chairman if command is exercised in all controversial cases. He added that it should be used only when the exercise of the power of the prosecution goes against the constitution or the laws. Former Seoul Bar Association President Kim Han-gyu pointed out that it was a question of whether Yoon had the qualifications to conduct the investigation of the family case without having any idea that he was involved in the investigation. A lawyer for the prosecution also said that preventing the exercise of the authority of the president itself, rather than a specific order on the case, could constitute an abuse of office. Some analyzes say that the purpose of the investigation is to pressure President Yun’s decision rather than a fair investigation. Daegu’s former senior attorney general, Kim Gyeong-su, said that the invocation of command was a phenomenon and actually appeared to be a means of firing Yun. As President Yoon immediately announced that he would accept command of the investigation, public criticism within the prosecution occurs in an atmosphere of abstention from public criticism. President Yoon Suk-yeol appears at the national audit of the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office held the day after tomorrow in the National Assembly. We are interested in whether Mr. Yoon, who left the word that he is not loyal to people, will make a “ competitive comment ” on the current situation.
