Seoul Senior Prosecutor’s Office “Disciplinary Procedures” … The Internal Department Investigation Responsibility Theory
丁 Deputy Prosecutor’s Office “performs fairly”
Gwangju District Attorney General Jin-woong Chung (52nd, 29th Judicial Research and Training Institute, photo) assaulted Prosecutor Han Dong-hoon (47th, 27th term) in the seizure and search process in July, and put him on trial on the 27th on charges of causing three weeks of injury. lost. It has been three months since a prosecutor filed a complaint and a request for prosecution with the Seoul Senior Prosecutor’s Office requesting an investigation by Prosecutor Chung, who was then head of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office, for self-harm. Deputy Prosecutor Jeong rebelled and said, “It was a fair job execution.”
○ Conclusion of assault based on testimony and video of witnesses
On that day, the Seoul Senior Prosecutor’s Office indicted Deputy Chief Prosecutor Chung without custody on the charges of self-directed assault under the Aggravated Punishment Law for Specific Offenses. Self-directed assault (瀆職 暴行) is a charge that is applied when the prosecutor or the police abuse their functions and commit an assault or severe act against a person under investigation. In very few cases have prosecutors been charged with this charge.
The prosecution said that a prosecutor who was sitting on a sofa to steal a mobile phone while conducting a seizure and looking for a mobile phone sim (Subscriber Authentication Identification Module) at a prosecutor’s office at the Yongin branch of the Institute of Legal Training in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do on July 29. He was judged to have performed an assault such as grabbing his arm and shoulders and shoving him under the sofa.
The Seoul High Prosecutor’s Office is said to have restored the situation through statements from prosecutors, investigators and training center officials belonging to the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office, who witnessed the scene. It is reported that a video of a part of the situation at that time was also used as evidence by officials at the scene. Seoul Central District Attorney General Lee Seong-yoon is known to visit the Seoul Senior Prosecutor’s Office in August, right after the incident, and asked, “I am investigating (for Shillazen’s alleged coverage), so that the inspection should be postponed. ” However, it is known that Seoul’s Senior Attorney General Cho Sang-cheol, who was appointed as his successor in the same month, received a report of the incident and ordered him to “take it in accordance with principles.” The investigation into Prosecutor Chung was carried out in late September, just before the Chuseok holiday. If a court convicted of moral assault is found guilty, it will be sentenced to up to 5 years in prison and up to 10 years in suspension. Taking into account the injuries of a prosecutor, the prosecutor applied the charges of self-directed assault under the Special Law to Prosecutor Chung. In this case, if convicted, he would be sentenced to one year or more in prison.
○ Internal Prosecutor “The Central District Attorney General Lee Seong-yoon is also responsible for the command”
The Seoul High Prosecutor’s Office, which has been conducting investigations and inspections of Jeong’s deputy chief prosecutors on a “two-track” basis, plans to proceed with disciplinary procedures for Prosecutor Chung. The specific level of disciplinary action is determined by the Inspection Committee of the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office based on the results of the inspection. The number of disciplinary actions is drawing attention, as the case of being charged with self-directed battery is rare.
It is known that the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office is considering the possibility of continuing to participate in the trial of Deputy Attorney General Chung, who has continued prosecution in the case of the Shillazen-related cases. Deputy Prosecutor Chung did not participate in this week’s trial.
Within the prosecution, there is a view that he should be in charge of the command and supervision of the district attorney. Some point out that it is necessary to fully disclose how Deputy Attorney General Chung attempted an unreasonable seizure search against a prosecutor.
Deputy Prosecutor Chung, who was being investigated and monitored by the Seoul Senior Prosecutor’s Office, was promoted to deputy prosecutor from a prosecutor’s office run by the Ministry of Justice in August. On the other hand, former Seoul Superior Prosecutor’s Office official Jeong Jin-gi, who investigated the Deputy Attorney General’s Office, resigned after being transferred to the Daegu Superior Prosecutor’s Office, and some prosecutors from the investigation team were replaced.
Deputy Attorney General Chung said: “It is difficult to accept that he was prosecuted recognizing the assault for the execution of the duty to execute the order of seizure and search. In the future, he will go to court faithfully and will actively affirm the legitimacy of his duties at that time. “
